00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,600
Mr Deans. 
Represents a clear and present 

2
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,000
danger of national security of 
the United States. 

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:15,240
You have no idea what Miss 
O'cala can. 

4
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,480
Do hello and welcome back to the
episodes 12 of Clear and Present

5
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:27,560
Dudes, the fast food slick ass 
Persian Bazaar movie podcasts 

6
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,920
where tonight we are discussing 
1990 twos A Few Good Men 

7
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,640
directed by Rob Brenner, written
by Aaron Sorkin, soaring, Tom 

8
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:42,920
Cruise, Demi Moore, Kevin 
Pollack, Kevin Bacon, Kiefer 

9
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,480
Sutherland, Jack Nicholson and 
some other people. 

10
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,080
Yeah, awesome, right? 
Cool how we doing guys? 

11
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,240
Living the dream, feeling really
crappy. 

12
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,240
I feel we're a real podcast now 
because we're doing an episode 

13
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,240
when I'm announcing oh God, I'm 
so sick. 

14
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,800
But we're still going to keep 
doing it because, you know, 

15
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,360
because, you know, we're a 
serious podcast now. 

16
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,040
Yeah, I feel like crap. 
And I've got like the death bug 

17
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,760
that's going round. 
It's killing everybody. 

18
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,680
I'm, I'm probably going to die 
in the next 7 hours, but you 

19
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:14,000
know, it is what it is and I'm 
just standing on the wall and 

20
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,720
making sure nobody hurts Demi 
Moore. 

21
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,600
So. 
Yeah, I tell you what, I feel a 

22
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,160
little bit like I'm in 
Guantanamo Bay. 

23
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,360
The Guantanamo Bay can depicted 
in in A few Good men because it 

24
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,680
is the 5th November. 
I live on the South side of 

25
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,520
Glasgow and outside my window 
all I hear is explosion after 

26
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,800
explosion after explosion all 
night long. 

27
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,520
Cool. 
It's kind of, it's a bit weird 

28
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,960
this we haven't got a we haven't
got a bear in the dragon 

29
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:39,800
anymore. 
It's gone. 

30
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,400
It's done. 
I'm missing it. 

31
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,160
I'm actually missing talking 
about like this. 

32
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:50,240
Bizarre, terrible, horny, non 
credible techno thriller with 

33
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:56,640
you guys definitely feel like 
feels like something's gone from

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,480
from my life or light has been 
extinguished out there. 

35
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,520
What do you? 
What do you, what do you fight 

36
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,600
another one? 
Used to be a favourite. 

37
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,520
And just before we go into the 
actual movie, can you just say 

38
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,240
the words Japanese sausage one 
last time? 

39
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,080
Japanese sausage. 
Jade sausage. 

40
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,080
Master sausage. 
Amazing. 

41
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:18,040
Brilliant. 
OK, cool. 

42
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,040
In the movie, right? 
Yeah. 

43
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:26,120
So as I mentioned, we are 
discussing the almost definitive

44
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:30,680
military courtroom drama given 
to us by Rob Brunette, written 

45
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,640
by Aaron Sorkin, adapting his 
own play that he'd wrote based 

46
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:36,600
on apparently a real Code Red 
incident. 

47
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,600
Apparently Aaron Sorkin's sister
was a Navy lawyer and she told 

48
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,200
Mel the case. 
I don't know how professional 

49
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,120
that is. 
And he wrote a award-winning 

50
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,120
Broadway musical about it and 
how professional that is, which 

51
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,960
is then turned into this movie. 
Tremendous success, $243 million

52
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,760
worldwide. 
Obviously one of the definitive 

53
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,280
Jack Nicholson performances, 
even though he's only in it 

54
00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:00,160
relatively small amount of 
runtime. 

55
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,600
A bit of a serious actor making 
performance for for Tom Cruise 

56
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,400
alongside like born the 4th of 
July and that and also tell me 

57
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,080
more getting some proper acting 
chops in having to work her way 

58
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,080
around that Aaron Sorkin 
dialogue. 

59
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,240
A man who I've described 
recently as the thinking man's 

60
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,600
Joss Whedon, not because of his 
sexual propriety, which I don't 

61
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,080
believe there is any, but just 
that that very fast-paced 

62
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,160
dialogue that he's famous for. 
So. 

63
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:32,800
Impropriety. 
What's your what's what's your 

64
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,640
experience of the movie? 
Did you had you seen it before? 

65
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:40,080
We did it this week. 
I saw years ago, like years ago,

66
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,560
I think this was like literally 
one of those like washed with 

67
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,800
your dad in like the mid 90s 
kind of films up there with 

68
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,640
things like, you know, no way 
Out, etcetera. 

69
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,480
I forgot how good this film is. 
When this film goes hard, the 

70
00:03:54,480 --> 00:04:00,920
writing is incredible. 
I've rarely been so excited by a

71
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,200
film that's got so much non-stop
banter in it. 

72
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,360
I think we've all taken shots at
films that have been a bit kind 

73
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:13,040
of banter overload before, but 
unashamed to say that dialogue 

74
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,920
in this film sparkles at some 
points and it's just, it's just 

75
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,839
so witty. 
It's so sharp. 

76
00:04:19,079 --> 00:04:23,840
It's like welcome back banter. 
All is forgiven for now. 

77
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,560
Excellent. 
Yeah, we'll definitely get into 

78
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,680
some of the banter scenes as we 
go through and especially as we 

79
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,240
start to talk about quotes in 
the movie, because this whole 

80
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,720
movie is eminently quotable. 
I say that a lot. 

81
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,400
But this is as a guy who's going
through a bit of a West Wing 

82
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,880
marathon at the minute because, 
you know, hope and everything. 

83
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,880
Yeah. 
Like, yeah, it's just, it's, 

84
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:49,680
yeah, very much soaked in that 
world of of fast-paced, witty 

85
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,840
dialogue where everyone is 
incredibly, sparklingly witty 

86
00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:55,240
and nobody says a Duff line. 
Yeah. 

87
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,560
Fantastic. 
Sonia, have you seen the movie 

88
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,080
before? 
Yes, I think that's actually the

89
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,080
fair time I've watched it. 
I am ruining Ruin though, 

90
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:09,480
because I've come to, well, I've
done law school and the Navy's. 

91
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,320
I just enjoy it though. 
It's so dramatic. 

92
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,000
It's so over the top. 
Well, we're going to have to 

93
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,120
come back to you for some some 
legal opinions as we go through.

94
00:05:18,280 --> 00:05:20,600
I'm assuming that you obviously 
you did law school. 

95
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,240
I'm not sure you've been like a 
trial lawyer, but. 

96
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,840
No. 
And I'm sure the German legal 

97
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:30,320
system is probably a little bit 
different from the situation of 

98
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,840
Tiny, but we. 
We don't even have we don't even

99
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:38,640
have have military courts really
like we we do not their their 

100
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,320
civilian. 
So we, we don't get like people 

101
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,760
in uniform yelling at each 
other. 

102
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:49,440
They want the truth. 
Unfortunately, I, I, I feel like

103
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,960
I would enjoy doing that to, to 
a good handful of people at the 

104
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,960
moment. 
Well, regretfully. 

105
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,000
Do you still have like, do you 
still have like a trial by 

106
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,960
combat when when you're assigned
champions will go and chin each 

107
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,720
other in the town square? 
It is. 

108
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:10,160
It is common for for your CEO's 
to just be randomly shipped off 

109
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:16,160
to Nuremberg. 
I think, I think Rory was going 

110
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,000
for reference to the life and 
death of Colonel Blimp. 

111
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,280
Maybe that? 
Yeah, but I was just calling for

112
00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:22,480
life and ethnic little blimp 
reference, but of the old final 

113
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:27,680
make home bus. 
Honestly, I wish we had. 

114
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:33,280
I would have. 
I was tempted to challenge my 

115
00:06:33,280 --> 00:06:35,480
last CEO to a duel. 
Repeat. 

116
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,760
So fucking. 
I would be on board with that, 

117
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,800
but unfortunately I think it 
would mostly count count as 

118
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,600
assault and damage to government
property. 

119
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:51,400
So we've got a whole e-mail 
inbox if you want to egg Sanya 

120
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,960
on to challenge various members 
of his chain of command. 

121
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:02,280
Do dual and this emails at. 
Cleararentpresentdudes@gmail.com

122
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,120
Excellent. 
And I suppose while we're in the

123
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,680
the plugging mood, yeah, thank 
you for everyone who's so far. 

124
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,280
Please subscribe if you can, if 
you haven't already, like drop 

125
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,080
comments, all that good stuff. 
Please, please, please. 

126
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:22,000
We've kind of plateaued with our
with our listenership, which has

127
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:27,640
hit a steady about 20. 
That's not quite true. 

128
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,560
Got got 23 on YouTube, 60 on 
Spotify. 

129
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,320
So that's, you know, about 
thirtyish. 

130
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,680
Although we are, we are, we are 
expanding the countries of our 

131
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,600
user base. 
Recently welcoming listener from

132
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,120
Uzbekistan, which I think is 
pretty cool. 

133
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:51,000
You know, we're on worldwide. 
Have we collected all 5 boroughs

134
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,800
of New York City by the way? 
Yes. 

135
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,360
Well, I haven't. 
No, we haven't. 

136
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,040
We are still outstanding 
Manhattan and Staten Island. 

137
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,720
Right. 
First we take Manhattan and then

138
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,440
we take Berlin. 
How do you get on it? 

139
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,320
It's. 
Brilliant. 

140
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,920
I mean, we all, we already have 
a platoon. 

141
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,600
Yeah, we do. 
And it's already international, 

142
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,800
so. 
Basically the Foreign Legion. 

143
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,880
An international brigade of just
the best people in the world who

144
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,160
are interested in the weirdest 
podcast going. 

145
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,120
A strange, toxic yet 
occasionally engaging, sometimes

146
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:37,480
funny mix of defence, film, 
nursery and absolute weapons 

147
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,960
grade militarised autism. 
So let's talk about the movie 

148
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,520
then. 
A Few Good Men 1992 is the story

149
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,640
of a Navy lawyer, Lieutenant 
Daniel Caffey, played by Tom 

150
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,520
Cruise, who's known for quick 
plea bargains and he's getting 

151
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:57,800
assigned to defend 2US Marines 
bans corporal on a private who 

152
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,040
have been accused of murdering A
fellow Marine at Guantanamo Bay,

153
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,160
leaving as most of the story. 
Lieutenant Commander Joanne 

154
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,720
Galloway, played by Demi Moore, 
and Lieutenant Sam Weinberg, 

155
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,000
played by Kevin Pollack, joined 
Cathy to uncover whether a 

156
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,720
clandestine disciplinary order 
called a good Red ordered from 

157
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,000
the top brass has taken place 
and is responsible for the 

158
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,240
death. 
What ensues is a courtroom 

159
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,560
showdown with Base Commander 
Colonel Nathan Jessup, played by

160
00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:25,760
Jack Dickerson, exposing a clash
between following orders and 

161
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,120
following conscience. 
Shall we watch the trailer? 

162
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,200
Yeah, let's watch this trailer. 
You pretty pretty good trailer. 

163
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,640
I'm going to I'm going to say it
wasn't as good as the trailer As

164
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,960
for for Unstoppable, but. 
Was unreal. 

165
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:47,040
I'm I'm actually in, it's an 
interesting way just how how 

166
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,760
much of the kind of climactic 
moments of the film, this trail 

167
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:55,320
I just kind of gave away. 
It's almost like, I mean, this 

168
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:59,160
is back in a time where I 
suppose you could give the the 

169
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,720
film watching public a bit of 
credit and go if you this guy's,

170
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,640
I mean, the movie starts with 
Tom Cruise desperate to avoid a 

171
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,760
courtroom. 
We know he's going to wind up in

172
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,960
a courtroom like and you have to
and you have to sell the movie 

173
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,720
Jack Dixon and most of his 
scenes take place in the 

174
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,160
courtroom so that. 
Is true. 

175
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:21,320
I mean otherwise you're going to
have like what scenes of Jack 

176
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,680
Nicholson in his BDU is just 
talking trash in his office? 

177
00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:27,760
Or scenes of Jack Nicholson 
smoking a cigar and getting 

178
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,640
waited on next to his cushy 
villa on the base. 

179
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,320
I was, yeah. 
Right. 

180
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:34,560
Yeah, I'm. 
Looking. 

181
00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:39,560
For those five guys 1300 feet 
away from those 4000 dudes, it 

182
00:10:39,560 --> 00:10:41,120
is. 
It is a villa with his 

183
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:47,280
manservant. 
Yeah, yeah, Big oh big up shader

184
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,120
fucking staying in a hotel in 
Cyprus. 

185
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:54,520
Energy, yeah. 
It's big fucking Roman centurion

186
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,120
energy. 
It's like energy. 

187
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,160
It's like it's just like it's a 
tail as well as time. 

188
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,640
Like again, 3000 years ago, this
thing probably happened with 

189
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,520
like some like legionaries 
killing some of that dude. 

190
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:14,480
So Oh my God, who, who, who, 
who, who ordered the deservation

191
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,680
of this one particular fucking. 
They go around and this is like 

192
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,960
like high rank and legionary 
God, like listen, son, 

193
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:28,880
surrounded by slaves and stuff 
and like, listen, these these 

194
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:35,440
these Britons that are rub 50 
leagues away from me with that 

195
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,000
pointed sticks. 
I'm riffing. 

196
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,960
Well, Sonia does what I know 
he's doing, by the way, and we 

197
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,560
stand on this wall. 
Legionaries can't handle the 

198
00:11:44,560 --> 00:11:47,600
truth. 
You. 

199
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,360
Need me on Hadrian's Wall? 
You need me on Hadrian. 

200
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,800
'S. 
Wall. 

201
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,880
It's like. 
You need me on the lemurs. 

202
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,280
Hey, we'd better put some 
camouflage jackets over you. 

203
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,000
Why? 
Oh well, you know the, the the 

204
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,800
ancient Britons will say your 
fucking lower cast segment Tata 

205
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,960
and they'll think you're 
somewhat to throw Spears at. 

206
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,360
OK, get in, get in, get in the 
2000 year old Humvee and we'll 

207
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,880
and we'll bool along. 
I'd say I kind of vibes off him.

208
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,880
All the while he's saying I'm 
the most badass ally tip of the 

209
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,760
spear bloke. 
It's like you've got a fucking 

210
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,920
manservant. 
You're in the fucking, you're in

211
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,200
the Caribbean. 
You know he. 

212
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,000
Wishes he was Colonel. 
Kurtz He wishes. 

213
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:43,080
He wishes he'd gone downriver 
and gone insane. 

214
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:48,600
You know, like it's like this. 
This film actually shines a 

215
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:54,240
light on just how kind of Kush 
being posted like a nice place 

216
00:12:54,240 --> 00:13:00,400
is, I think, because people 
seemingly will do anything to to

217
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,520
like underline how badass and 
tough it actually is. 

218
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,000
Like, Oh my God, I'm up against 
these Cubans and the point and 

219
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,200
guns at us all the time. 
And there's all these never been

220
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,960
fucking documented instances of 
Cubans threw up killing 

221
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,440
Americans and got to keep those 
guns up guys. 

222
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,760
And, and it's like, well, it's, 
I mean, it's you make yourself 

223
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,520
look like it's really necessary 
that you're there and you're 

224
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,280
doing a bad hard job because the
alternative is you got sent to 

225
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,560
Greenland or something like 
that. 

226
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:32,160
So it's like. 
There's there's always like the 

227
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,920
Super over eggs kind of security
brief you'll get when you arrive

228
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,480
in theatre. 
And then it's like right now 

229
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,360
you've been through this, the 
security brief, which has like 

230
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,840
video footage of people lobbing 
fire bombs at each other and a 

231
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,040
blow whipping out a shotgun on 
the on the on the motorway and 

232
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,560
stuff. 
That's a Jay with the I watched 

233
00:13:48,560 --> 00:13:51,760
once on arrival at the Bahrain 
and it's like right, cool. 

234
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,120
When you want to go after this, 
you want to go to Scan Alley, 

235
00:13:54,120 --> 00:14:00,080
then go to the pictures. 
Scan Alley, I love it. 

236
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,120
Yeah, gosh, brilliant. 
Yeah, it's this one St in in 

237
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,520
Bahrain right next to the 
American base, which is just 

238
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,160
like full of like five guys and 
like and like 3 guys, which is a

239
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:15,040
different local knock off. 
That's incredible. 

240
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:16,600
Yeah. 
That's austerity. 

241
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,400
That's austerity in action. 
Yeah, so they shouldn't. 

242
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,280
Have done for for something like
5 wives or something that would 

243
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,560
have been OK. 
Wow. 

244
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,200
No, I'm not doing the cultural 
sensitivity brief today. 

245
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:36,000
Thank you. 
Brilliant. 

246
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:43,880
This movie, right? 
It starts with some very funky 

247
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,080
arms drill by the US Marines. 
Yeah. 

248
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,360
So what do you guys think of? 
Think of that with the. 

249
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:50,920
I like that with the music and 
everything. 

250
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:55,560
Very, very fancy. 
It was done by I noticed 

251
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,400
creditors actually took a 
picture on the screen. 

252
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:04,480
I noticed that in the credits, 
this this incredibly Ally arms 

253
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:11,160
drill, which was so frigging 
cool, was performed by this name

254
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,880
was an absolute mouthful. 
The association of former fish 

255
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:19,560
drill team members of cadets at 
Texas A&M University. 

256
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,560
Brilliant. 
Giggum go Aggies. 

257
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,200
Nice. 
Because we see that a little bit

258
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:31,000
and then the next thing we see 
is the crime in question, which 

259
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,640
is the cool red being done on 
private first class moving in 

260
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,680
Santiago by his two oppos. 
It looks really brutal. 

261
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,640
They cut before it gets probably
bad, but you know, they seem 

262
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,960
like duct take his mouth shut 
and shove the rag down his 

263
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,680
throat and all that kind of 
stuff. 

264
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,160
Pretty grim. 
And then it comes back to the 

265
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,760
the drill team. 
And then we first clap eyes on 

266
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:55,840
Demi Moore as Lieutenant 
Commander Joanne Galloway, the 

267
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,080
Jag Corps, as she just kind of 
walks right through where 

268
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,760
they've been marching. 
Yeah, which is a little bit in, 

269
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,640
in. 
Where did she come from? 

270
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,600
She emerged from the tree line 
and was walking across the 

271
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,760
fields. 
That's how you summon that. 

272
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:13,960
That's that's how you summon a. 
Unique drill circle to summon 

273
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,720
that. 
Marching bands. 

274
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,480
And then next for the tree line,
a bit like M Night Sherman's the

275
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,000
village in reverse, but we want 
to get her out of the tree line.

276
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,720
That's since what she's she's 
the the what the senior counsel 

277
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,040
to the Bureau of Internal 
Affairs or something cool. 

278
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,480
She's muttering to herself about
how she wants to get a 

279
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,680
particular case. 
She's she's on her way to a 

280
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,320
meeting with a with A4 ring 
captain and she's kind of saying

281
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:45,960
she's like trying to rephrase a 
sentence to herself. 

282
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,560
And she's also really nervous. 
She's like I, I believe it is I 

283
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,960
who should be assigned to this. 
I I think that given the 

284
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,040
seriousness, it, it ought to be 
me that is the one that is 

285
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,400
assigned or is gets the 
assignment to. 

286
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,200
And she like, can't find a 
sentence to say. 

287
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,120
Yeah. 
And then she's yeah. 

288
00:17:04,079 --> 00:17:05,520
But that's what's her little 
journey. 

289
00:17:06,599 --> 00:17:12,040
And then we cut to our boy, the 
son and Daniel Cathy, Tom 

290
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,560
Cruise. 
And he's playing softball. 

291
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,560
And it's it's Tom Cruise doing a
sport. 

292
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,400
What do you what do you think of
Tom Cruise doing a sport right 

293
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,520
away? 
Against some, against some deja 

294
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,960
vu, because we talked about this
the last episode as well. 

295
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,560
I, I don't, I don't fully 
believe was a sportsman. 

296
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,200
I don't think any of us truly, 
truly believe this man as a 

297
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,680
sportsman. 
There's an element of not quite 

298
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,560
full kit wanker, but he's 
certainly got like top half up 

299
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,920
kit wanker energy because he's 
he's got he's got a little got a

300
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,640
little baseball cap on Boston 
Red Sox. 

301
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,200
Something that I noticed was 
whole scene was just how at 

302
00:17:55,200 --> 00:18:00,480
times he really reminded me of 
Schmidt from New Girl. 

303
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,080
Yeah. 
Dialogue in that little 

304
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,560
sequence, something about like 
the way he kind of carries 

305
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,040
himself as well. 
There are moments in this film 

306
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:15,000
when he has this like level of 
schmittiness, this like kind of 

307
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,320
this points when when when the 
role could have been played by 

308
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,600
Max Greenfield for at least some
of the film. 

309
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,360
Man. 
Can you imagine actually? 

310
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:26,080
Great casting. 
What if? 

311
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,560
Imagine if that movie was made 
like 20 years later. 

312
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,200
Pick New Girl era even now 
actually. 

313
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,880
Pick New Girl era. 
Yes, we could even have Zoe 

314
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:41,320
Deschanel in Can, Can you? 
Imagine. 

315
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:42,120
No. 
That's rude. 

316
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,040
No, no. 
Just try the whole thing. 

317
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,800
Oh. 
No, but no bug screw for that 

318
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:48,120
would be awesome man. 
Yeah, man. 

319
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:52,200
Then we come back to Tim Moore 
and she's in her meeting with A4

320
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:57,600
Ring Captain Jack Guy and he's 
they've taken delivery of the 

321
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:02,600
case notes for the the case, 
which is Lance Corporal Dawson 

322
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,000
and Private First Class Downey, 
U.S. 

323
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,000
Marines who have been charged 
with the murder of Private First

324
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,640
Class William Santiago. 
They've brought in Danny Moore 

325
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,120
into the office because she's a 
really good investigator and 

326
00:19:14,120 --> 00:19:16,520
she's called the case and she's 
really passionate about trying 

327
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,080
to sort out these these code red
things. 

328
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,800
But everyone's been very ginger 
about it because they're all 

329
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,360
scared of the absolute shitstorm
it's going to bring up Because 

330
00:19:28,360 --> 00:19:30,960
the commanding officer of the 
base down there is tipped to 

331
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,880
become the new, you know, 
director of operations for the 

332
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:39,360
National Security Advisor. 
So it's a political minefield. 

333
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:44,160
Then she finds out it's going to
although dunk dunk Cathy, who we

334
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,560
just saw with his careful 
attitude in his desire to get a 

335
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,840
plea bargain and his absolute 
allergic reaction to attending a

336
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,800
courtroom. 
Dan Caffey generally thinks he's

337
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,160
the shit and he's been picked 
for this case because he's so 

338
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,840
good and doesn't yet realise 
that he's actually just being 

339
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:02,680
picked for this case because 
he's proper Rouge and and and 

340
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,800
would not dare take it to trial.
Yeah. 

341
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,800
Cool. 
What do you think of what do you

342
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,360
think of our cast so far? 
Sonya pop in first. 

343
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,560
Wading into a really seeming hot
water here. 

344
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,960
Just saying that I think I am 
generally not all that much of A

345
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,880
Tom Cruise fan, but I think you 
really fixed this one. 

346
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,160
Yeah, that's pretty common for 
you these days, isn't it? 

347
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,120
Let's talk about Tom Cruise, 
show about it. 

348
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:29,720
Let's talk about Tom Cruise for 
a minute, OK? 

349
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,920
Yeah, let's do this. 
So. 

350
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:34,880
He is actually really good on 
this film. 

351
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:39,600
Yeah. 
About 1/4 way through the film, 

352
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,160
I thought this is a this is a 
Tom Cruise all timer as far as 

353
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:48,520
performances go alike like the 
subtleties of even things like 

354
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,920
his facial expressions, his 
reactions, especially, 

355
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,800
especially in the scene when 
spoilers, because it's a spoiler

356
00:20:54,800 --> 00:21:00,000
cast when he when he just rage 
baits Jack Nicholson into 

357
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,440
admitting that he you know, or 
add the code red, the look on 

358
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,000
his face together. 
A couple of you got away with 

359
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,520
that kind of thing. 
The reactions, the facial 

360
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,080
expressions, it's it's really 
good. 

361
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:16,080
I hate that performance of his. 
In my opinion, it's one of his 

362
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,800
best. 
Probably controversial, but it 

363
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,120
is what it is. 
Yeah. 

364
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,920
Should we, should we address the
Tom Cruise of it all? 

365
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,880
So I totally agree with you, 
Roy. 

366
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,440
I think, I think he's really, 
really good in this role. 

367
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,720
Yeah. 
I, I will say now, opinions 

368
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,800
obviously vary about the guy. 
A lot of speculation about his 

369
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,280
personal life and his contract 
on set sometimes as well. 

370
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,920
We all remember during COVID 
when he had that missive 

371
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,680
blowout, do I think it was the 
first dead reckoning? 

372
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,560
They were filming at the time 
and he and he had that whole big

373
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,640
crash out and it was recorded 
because people weren't masking 

374
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,720
up properly on set and stuff and
he was kicking off about it. 

375
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:53,960
Remember that. 
This. 

376
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,960
No, I think I missed that crash 
out actually. 

377
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,640
We could always drop a clip of 
it in. 

378
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,320
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
I'll find a cut for it and put 

379
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,160
it in. 
We are the gold standard. 

380
00:22:04,120 --> 00:22:07,080
You're back here in Hollywood 
making movies right now because 

381
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,880
of us, because they believe in 
us and what we're getting. 

382
00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:17,200
I'm on the phone with every 
studio at night, insurance 

383
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:23,680
companies, producers, and 
they're looking at us and using 

384
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,800
us to make their movies. 
We are creating thousands of 

385
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:32,240
jobs. 
I don't ever want to see it 

386
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:37,280
again, ever. 
Obviously. 2005 The the hopping 

387
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,440
on the sofa, yeah. 
Yeah. 

388
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:45,800
The Katie Holmes stuff, 
obviously his kind of early 

389
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,120
foray into into Scientology, 
which I think it was a Mimi 

390
00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:51,440
Rogers thing. 
I have to double check this. 

391
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,440
I don't want to get in trouble, 
but I think Mimi Rogers is what 

392
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,720
got got him into it. 
And then he then he got out of 

393
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,360
it with Nicole Kidman, I think. 
And then he got kind of dragged 

394
00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:02,440
back into it even deeper, like 
the Godfather part three kind of

395
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,120
thing. 
And then, yeah. 

396
00:23:05,120 --> 00:23:08,960
And then and then since then 
he's kind of like kind of had a 

397
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,920
weird passo in his career. 
At this point, though, he's 

398
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,520
doing some really good stuff. 
So at this point, it's great. 

399
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:19,880
Tom Cruise having done like the 
kind of early like cocktail Days

400
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:24,160
of Thunder kind of rules where, 
yeah, he's got like good people 

401
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,640
around him in supporting roles, 
people like like Robert Duvalls 

402
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,200
and and and Days of Thunder has 
a relatively minor role, but 

403
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:32,640
he's a like good like mental 
character. 

404
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,520
Top Gun. 
He's got Tom Skerritt there 

405
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:38,080
seasoned all director kind of 
helping along in a mentoring 

406
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,040
role. 
Now we're getting to the point 

407
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,440
in his career, I think, where 
he's starting to do like 2 to 2 

408
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,320
with like these giants and he's 
got to act as much as they could

409
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,760
act. 
He's kind of been a bit like, 

410
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,720
I'm not talking, obviously what 
he does is difficult, but he was

411
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,120
kind of a pretty face in like in
like Top Gun for a lot of it has

412
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,920
a couple of emotional scenes, 
but he's he's mainly a pretty 

413
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,120
face right at this point in his 
career now he's doing he's done 

414
00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:03,800
stuff like I think born the 4th 
of July, he's like 24. 

415
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,720
I think he's done this the next 
year. 

416
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,000
He's got the firm with Gene 
Hackman. 

417
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,400
Yeah. 
So he's coming against. 

418
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,160
He's like Titans. 
And this is a really good 

419
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:17,080
example of that with with Jack 
Nicholson, like incredible 

420
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,880
performance, incredible 
performance of Jack Nilson. 

421
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,320
And yet and yet, like Tom is 
like there with him, like 

422
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,320
holding his own, I think. 
Totally. 

423
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:31,320
The the scene when he's at the 
base at the, I'm going to keep 

424
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,480
calling it the villa because it 
looks like a villa. 

425
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,400
You know what he's having is 
when, when, when he's been 

426
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,520
invited to be flexed at. 
Colonel Nathan R Jessup. 

427
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,240
Colonel Nathan, Nathan R Jessup.
Yeah. 

428
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,080
And this one, Jack Nicholson 
basically invites him was flex 

429
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,720
off and. 
And you know that he's like kind

430
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,920
of that flex on him because he's
already halfway through a badass

431
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:55,440
dip when he arrives, found a 
piece of white cloth and he's 

432
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,320
surrounded to ACNN news team. 
And I was like, oh, there you 

433
00:24:58,360 --> 00:24:59,200
are. 
The guy I've been trying to 

434
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,960
humiliate. 
And yeah, in terms of acting 

435
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,880
like, yeah, he's he. 
He matches them blow for blow. 

436
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,120
It's really good chop for chop. 
It's excellent. 

437
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:14,520
Nobody seems out of out of the 
league in that whole scene. 

438
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:18,320
Yeah, yeah. 
This movie's quite so people who

439
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:22,200
I think who haven't had 
necessarily the the credit for 

440
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,400
being great actors prize this 
movie. 

441
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,400
I think really to step up and 
give the regame. 

442
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,960
I think there's there's a couple
of people I think are maybe 

443
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,160
slightly wicked on this and I 
think their careers have borne 

444
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,920
out in that in that way, 
unfortunately do still do good 

445
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,600
work in this movie. 
And I do believe them. 

446
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:37,760
But I think they do stick out a 
little bit. 

447
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,320
I think, I think, I think our 
two defendants, I think Wolfgang

448
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,880
Butterson as, as Harold Dawson 
is maybe outmatched a little 

449
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,840
bit, has a bit of a got a got a 
weird energy from him. 

450
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,280
Apart from the bit where he 
doesn't salute and put his hands

451
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:53,320
in his pockets. 
That's brilliant. 

452
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,280
He does that, He sells that. 
He says that so well. 

453
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,680
That was absolutely class that 
was meant. 

454
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,800
Yeah, he's really good. 
At that, yeah, that that was, 

455
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,240
that was a nod to the real 
defence heads and the whole 

456
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,000
marines can't put their hands in
the pockets kind of thing that's

457
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,920
constantly beamed upon, right. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, really good. 

458
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:20,160
James Marshall is Private Loudon
Downey, who people may know more

459
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,360
for being James. 
He's called James Marshall in 

460
00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:26,120
real life, James Hurley in Twin 
Peaks. 

461
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,040
I think he's somewhat out of his
depth as an actor. 

462
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:36,920
Unfortunately, in this movie it 
helps his character is like very

463
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,840
simple. 
Yeah. 

464
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,480
I mean, I was going to say thick
as men's for very simple. 

465
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,960
Yeah. 
He's he, he, he is not a smart 

466
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:46,440
man. 
There's. 

467
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,240
A There's a there's definitely a
there's definitely a deleted 

468
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,280
scene where he's got like a 
packet of crayons for a snack. 

469
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,320
In he's he's he's skating close 
to like simple Jack. 

470
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,560
Everybody else, though, stepped 
up. 

471
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,040
I think so. 
Kevin Bacon, Jack Ross really 

472
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:07,360
good performance believable 
unbelievable as this this Marine

473
00:27:07,360 --> 00:27:11,840
will heart goals still fiercely.
I get a very good Kiefer 

474
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,680
Sutherland as as as Kendrick, 
second left second Lieutenant 

475
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,160
Jonathan Kendrick, by the way, 
so pretty, pretty junior 

476
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,200
officer. 
Absolute absolute psychopath. 

477
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,240
Corn fed, corn fed psychopath 
like. 

478
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,000
Unsettling performance. 
Unsettling performance. 

479
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,560
Genuinely terrifying. 
Sutherland there and safe. 

480
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,000
The Sutherland DNA is strong in 
that performance. 

481
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,200
Yeah, if if, like you get the 
vibe from him that if he wasn't 

482
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,640
an officer in the US Marine 
Corps, he would be making a use 

483
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,480
of himself in someone's Police 
Department. 

484
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,600
Yeah, yeah. 
Really bad. 

485
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,440
Really bad. 
He'd be very much a turn off the

486
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,160
body Cam and then do horrendous 
things kind of guy. 

487
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,080
Yeah, definitely, Definitely. 
Yeah. 

488
00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:00,040
You see him take a set against 
Dan Caffey when Jess spells a 

489
00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:05,000
story out about how his father, 
like, I thought his name Lionel 

490
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,600
Cafe, I think his name is his 
dad is. 

491
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,080
Yeah. 
His dad was a a litigator who 

492
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,360
went down to Alabama and then 
and then won like a serious 

493
00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:16,960
civil action about allowing 
like, integration in schools. 

494
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,880
Yeah, that was it. 
And then that. 

495
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,640
And that's what sets keep his 
own off against him. 

496
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,960
He's like, oh, oh, you come down
to my Alabama. 

497
00:28:24,120 --> 00:28:27,720
They want to mix my schools. 
Well, I'm a horrible racist who 

498
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:32,720
loves the Bible. 
Coming to my house in to create 

499
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:40,880
my schools or be a racist. 
It's it's it's pretty much says 

500
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:46,120
the quiet part out loud. 
And he is just a horrible, nasty

501
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,400
little Christian nationalist 
kind of guy. 

502
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,480
He's the kind of guy who would 
hopefully get flags like 

503
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,600
extremism in in today's woke 
military. 

504
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,480
Hopefully. 
Probably not. 

505
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,920
See JT Walsh as well. 
Brilliant. 

506
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,720
JT Walsh was Lieutenant Colonel 
Markinson. 

507
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,080
Andrew Markinson. 
Yeah, Andrew Markinson. 

508
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,240
So he's he's the one that was a 
contemporary of Jessup's and 

509
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,240
they get outpaced. 
Is now serving as EXO at the at 

510
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,320
Gitmo. 
He's brilliant as well. 

511
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,680
I think he has a very, he's got 
a very small role. 

512
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,280
Yeah. 
But holds it with like a real 

513
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:26,880
quiet dignity. 
He does. 

514
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,200
And you can see like, right when
people talk about, we use words 

515
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,160
like honour and code when you 
talk about the actual honour and

516
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,920
the service values of, of what 
the US Marine Corps is probably 

517
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,920
meant to exemplify when it's not
being perverted by the likes of 

518
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,640
Jessup, like like JC Walsh's 
character. 

519
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,400
It's like what you expect it to 
be like these professional, 

520
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:52,160
competent, you know, men who and
women, but who who you know, 

521
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,400
have these these set of values 
and and live by them. 

522
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,400
And the fact that he had like 
kills himself out of out of 

523
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,520
because he's dishonoured himself
by participating in the cover 

524
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,840
up. 
Yeah speaks well and we've got 

525
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,160
Sheila Gooding junior Yeah, as a
corporal call Hamaker. 

526
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,200
He's only in like 1 scene and 
it's just like for a split 

527
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,120
second you're like, you probably
should have been, you probably 

528
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,760
should have been Dawson if we're
being real, like in terms of 

529
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:21,400
quality of actor, but but then 
the. 2nd, you can guarantee 

530
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,040
there would have been a 
discussion, a discussion at the 

531
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:29,080
like the kind of producer level 
of are we going to cast a man 

532
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:35,000
called Cuba to act in a major 
role in a film that's partially 

533
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:40,360
set in Cuba? 
And there would have been a like

534
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,560
a literal discussion of is, is 
this going to make our film look

535
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,280
silly? 
Well, they cast America Ferrera 

536
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,640
and Barbie, and a lot of that 
takes place in America. 

537
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,160
But these are things we know now
in the enlightened 21st century 

538
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,560
man the main characters. 
Navy guy whose last name is 

539
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:03,000
Coffee. 
Oh my God, yeah, it's the whole.

540
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,640
Thing is a cliche. 
That's right, of course he's 

541
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,480
homeboy, so swagger around with 
a German word for coffee is his 

542
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:10,480
handle. 
So yeah. 

543
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,920
Very good. 
Probably the weirdest 1 is 

544
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,960
Christopher Guest. 
Is Doctor Stone the the Doctor 

545
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,560
in charge in Gitmo? 
Yeah. 

546
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,360
From Spinal Tap and and went for
government and everything. 

547
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,920
Obviously, obviously Rob Renner 
was like, have I got a row for 

548
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,800
you? 
Is it is it funny? 

549
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,880
I don't know. 
Is someone drowning in the blood

550
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:38,000
in their own lungs funny? 
No, like it. 

551
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:42,360
Yeah. 
Awesome. 

552
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:44,160
Yeah. 
That we took it was too little 

553
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,160
break there to talk about all 
the cast in great detail. 

554
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,560
We can skip that category now. 
Cool. 

555
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,200
Right. 
Yeah. 

556
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,640
OK, so let's, let's go ahead a 
little bit. 

557
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,440
So there's a little bit of an R 
about who's going to take the 

558
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:57,920
case and what they're going to 
do. 

559
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,000
They go to Cuba to to do a 
little bit of investigating. 

560
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:08,800
And we see that Cafe, despite 
his best intents, he, he doesn't

561
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:09,920
really, he doesn't want to take 
the case. 

562
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,640
He, he doesn't want to. 
He just wants to brush it away 

563
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:19,280
like everybody else does. 
He's intimidated by Jessup and 

564
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,200
he's not got the instincts to be
a good investigator yet. 

565
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:27,480
And you see that when they go 
and like do a tour of his, his, 

566
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:31,920
his, like, I want to say Mystic,
his, his cabin, I guess his 

567
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,200
cabin. 
And they're looking like 

568
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:34,920
obviously the crime scene, 
they're looking at the crime 

569
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,480
scene, looking through stuff. 
We see some important stuff that

570
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:42,120
comes back later in the movie, 
but you got a lot of you got a 

571
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,440
lot of verbal back and forth 
between Kathy and and Galloway 

572
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,480
Galloway saying like, are you 
actually going to do any 

573
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,120
investigating while we're here? 
You're just going to take the 

574
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:53,400
guided tour. 
Big big fan of that big fan. 

575
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,720
The the scene I want to talk 
about, which we've talked about,

576
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,560
like you've you've mentioned 
like a handful of times already,

577
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,600
is the villa right? 
The the opposite, the club under

578
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,400
their special alawning and the 
officers mess. 

579
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,160
That that that dinner where he's
like holding court like a 

580
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,000
fucking like a fucking tutor 
king. 

581
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,720
Basically, like everyone, 
everyone comes to the Nathan 

582
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,520
Jessup lovin while I talk 
bullshit and everyone does a 

583
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,360
career laugh around me. 
I fucking hate that he's awful 

584
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:23,160
and he's he's horrible and he 
and he says that disgusting 

585
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,400
thing when he's trying to 
undermine Galloway. 

586
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,560
So halfway through. 
So Galloway keeps trying to push

587
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,960
for from her invasion. 
Kathy is like desperately trying

588
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,200
to de escalate it because he 
doesn't want to piss anybody 

589
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,480
off. 
So several times he's like, no, 

590
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,800
we're not, we're going to go. 
She's just one of, it's 

591
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,000
charming, just one of her 
quirks. 

592
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,760
She asks questions that she 
doesn't want the answer to. 

593
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:46,000
Let's go, let's go, let's go. 
And then and then Jessup does 

594
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,640
that whole like, I just realised
she outranks you. 

595
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,640
Oh, you're lucky there, kid. 
And it's been a horrible thing 

596
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:58,280
about how great it must be. 
Yeah, that whole thing I was, I 

597
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:03,320
was talking with with my wife 
earlier on, not about this scene

598
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,440
specifically, but we're talking 
about the concept nowadays about

599
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,280
what movies can it wouldn't get 
made today and what things would

600
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,840
be different. 
And if they made this movie, I 

601
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:16,239
think this year, this scene 
probably wouldn't be in it 

602
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,080
necessarily. 
And it's not because it's a bad 

603
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:19,920
scene. 
I think it's a really good 

604
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:24,760
scene. 
I think it's because depending 

605
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,719
on who made the movie, I guess 
people aren't necessarily as 

606
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,159
comfortable about talking about 
this kind of stuff anymore. 

607
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,440
Yeah. 
There's a big push online of 

608
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,520
people who are like, overly 
online to online, you might say,

609
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:42,239
who don't want to experience art
or the world in any kind of way 

610
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:43,480
that makes them feel 
uncomfortable. 

611
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,040
Yeah. 
I'm not going to say because of 

612
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,760
woke, right? 
That's not what I'm getting at. 

613
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,199
That's that's not what I'm 
that's not what I'm getting at 

614
00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:55,560
right. 
But but there is, there is a 

615
00:34:55,560 --> 00:35:00,040
certain amount of like of of 
like thickening skin that may be

616
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:04,600
required by some people out 
there who I get, I'm going to 

617
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:05,800
get on my soapbox a little bit 
here. 

618
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:10,000
I get really, I get really like,
I get yeah, because I get really

619
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:14,960
annoyed right about people. 
You see, you see on a lot of 

620
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,200
like YouTube content and over 
short form content on on on the 

621
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,200
Internet. 
Well, people don't use the word 

622
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:24,080
like killed anymore or committed
suicide or anything like that 

623
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:25,800
because they're afraid of 
offending somebody. 

624
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,120
These concepts exist. 
These things happen. 

625
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,400
The world doesn't have to be 
comfortable for you. 

626
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,560
Like like the world is out 
there. 

627
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:36,680
Terrible things happen everyday.
If you want to lock yourself in 

628
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:40,280
a bubble in your own house, 
then, you know, go with God. 

629
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,520
That's that's on you. 
But but the rest of the world 

630
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,960
doesn't need to moderate its 
language around you, like, like 

631
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,800
to walk on egg shells because 
because it might make your 

632
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,720
single individual experience a 
bit different. 

633
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:54,320
Like, like the world wasn't 
curated for you as one, you 

634
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,080
know, as one person. 
You know what I mean? 

635
00:35:56,240 --> 00:35:58,200
Just really pisses me off that 
there you see that kind of 

636
00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,280
stuff. 
It's like, fuck me, man. 

637
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,360
Like people get killed, right? 
OK. 

638
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,840
And like, no, no, no, no, no. 
They get analysed now we can't. 

639
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,640
No, yeah, that's what I'm 
saying. 

640
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:12,560
So yeah, I saw a video the other
day about, I swear to God, I was

641
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,840
watching a video on YouTube and 
it was about, it was about 

642
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:22,920
Wolfenstein the New Colossus, 
the 2019 video game where you 

643
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,320
plays BJ Baskowitz killing the 
fuck out of a shit tonne of 

644
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:26,400
Nazis, right? 
Yeah. 

645
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,120
And the guy on the video, I 
swear to God, does not say the 

646
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,520
word Nazi once and kept saying 
tyrants. 

647
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,000
And I'm like, good. 
Grief thought that is crazy, 

648
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:36,840
man. 
Why do you even want to fucking 

649
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,360
talk about it? 
You know, I see what I mean. 

650
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:44,880
I mean our our, our ancestors. 
Not specifically your Sonya 

651
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,720
Didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't 
spend years battling against 

652
00:36:48,720 --> 00:36:51,960
Moustache Man until he unlived 
himself in the Moustache Man 

653
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:57,240
bunker for nothing. 
You know, No, it's, it's, it's 

654
00:36:57,240 --> 00:36:58,800
wild. 
I've actually heard this like, 

655
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,320
like like I've heard of an 
actual quote, quote history 

656
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:06,680
content on YouTube that uses the
phrase moustache man instead of 

657
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,320
Hitler. 
And it's like, yes, he isn't 

658
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:09,960
fucking Lord Voldemort. 
He's not coming back. 

659
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,360
If you mentioned his name, he's 
not fucking, he's not fucking 

660
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,080
Beetlejuice. 
He's not he's he's he's, he's 

661
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,720
not the candy man, he's not the 
bye bye man. 

662
00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:21,000
Jesus, imagine that. 
I was like, Oh my God, guys, 

663
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,840
I've thought about Hitler and 
he's back. 

664
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:26,480
Isn't it? 
Yeah. 

665
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,400
Is he but? 
God damn. 

666
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:29,720
Yeah. 
So that that that whole 

667
00:37:29,720 --> 00:37:31,880
sequence, anyway, I think it's a
really good scene in the movie 

668
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,160
because it shows you what a a 
vulgar, crass, horrible, yeah. 

669
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,800
Despicable old dirty man. 
Yeah. 

670
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:42,520
That that Jessop is behind the 
veneer of him being a highly 

671
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,840
decorated officer. 
Like, and the veneer's pretty 

672
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:47,720
thin as well, isn't he? 
Pretty thin, I mean. 

673
00:37:47,720 --> 00:37:49,760
He's got, he's got no respect 
for anybody. 

674
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,160
No, not at all. 
And, and it's a significant 

675
00:37:53,160 --> 00:38:00,000
amount of it is bluster and it's
it's he's honestly, he acts like

676
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:05,880
he's in a pivotal role to defend
society against the hordes of 

677
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:10,480
Barbarians. 
And he's like a few hours boat 

678
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,880
away from Florida. 
He's like, yeah, he's like a 19 

679
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,160
miles away from the like fucking
Miami. 

680
00:38:16,720 --> 00:38:25,000
Yeah, like, like it's like you 
shit little man, for for for 

681
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,960
some reason you're in this 
position when you can just say 

682
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,680
shit that would and should be 
absolutely career ending if that

683
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:37,160
was ACNN camera team and not a 
cinema camera team, you know 

684
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,160
what I mean? 
And it's like, this is crazy, 

685
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,960
man. 
He's he's, he's a horrible 

686
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:47,080
little bollocks, basically. 
He's horrible about he's. 

687
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,000
A horrible little bollocks. 
You know, like he's a fucking 

688
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,520
nasty little testicle of a man. 
Yeah. 

689
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,000
And all it does is through his 
way around. 

690
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,960
There's the there's the scene 
prior to that where they're 

691
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,960
talking about when they're in 
his office and they're talking 

692
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,320
about whether to transfer 
Santiago away. 

693
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,240
And he gives it the whole big 
spew of like, I think we have a 

694
00:39:09,240 --> 00:39:12,200
responsibility to train him and 
blah, blah, blah. 

695
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,360
Well, that's not what you mean. 
Yeah. 

696
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,480
You don't really think of a 
responsibility to train him 

697
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,320
because you've already made your
mind up that this guy is 

698
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,200
unsalvageable as a Marine 
because he doesn't fit your 

699
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,360
particular like in what you 
think a good Marine is. 

700
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:28,560
And plus, I wanted them, didn't 
they? 

701
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,840
Because he was like, it was the 
whole thing when he was going to

702
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,600
rat, rat them out to the NIS. 
That's right, yeah. 

703
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:42,200
Because they're being like an 
unauthorised shot fired in the, 

704
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:46,840
in the Cuban territory. 
And he's like, I'm, I'll tell of

705
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:53,640
you, I'll get you done. 
Surely the Cubans themselves 

706
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:59,160
would be like, hi, one of your 
guys just fucking shot at us. 

707
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:04,320
Sort it out, you know, throw it 
out, you slags. 

708
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,600
Like it would be difficult to 
kind of cover this up if there 

709
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:12,840
was an actual literal fucking. 
Gunshot fired towards what they 

710
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:14,160
say is like the mirrors, isn't 
it? 

711
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:18,040
Say it's like like like the like
equivalent opposite number card 

712
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:22,400
posts. 
So it's like you know, and it 

713
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,320
isn't like open dagger to 
discharge desktop. 

714
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,280
Sorry boss. 
It's he was specifically 

715
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,520
claiming that he thought he was 
getting aimed at before. 

716
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,680
He was getting into and he found
an aim shot in retaliation. 

717
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:38,800
Yeah, right. 
I mean, we don't we don't get 

718
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,360
into this in the movie. 
And the one thing I will say 

719
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:46,160
before we we get it like right, 
the civvy audience listening to 

720
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,280
it will be we won't be able to 
make a reminder. 

721
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:50,800
I think about what we think 
about. 

722
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,960
It's it's implied that it's a 
big no, no. 

723
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,120
Obviously to automatically 
firing a shot into Cuba is 

724
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,520
pretty, pretty fucking bad. 
What we don't know though, is 

725
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,240
actually the the are we enforce 
for them at the time. 

726
00:41:03,240 --> 00:41:04,800
And I haven't really thought to 
look it up, to be honest. 

727
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,440
The general rule of thumb is 
that the American IOE is a lot 

728
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:15,040
more liberal than ours. 
And especially yours, Sonia, I 

729
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,760
think, I think, I think yours 
and ours are pretty restrictive.

730
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,480
I think NATO as a as a as a body
is extremely restrictive. 

731
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:23,640
Yeah. 
All right. 

732
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:28,200
So going on in the background, I
suppose with all this is Dawson 

733
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,920
and Downey don't trust a Cathy 
at all. 

734
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:35,720
Cathy, really for the first hour
of the movie, Kathy's not 

735
00:41:35,720 --> 00:41:39,560
popular with anybody. 
He's he's a bit full of himself,

736
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:44,760
a bit slick. 
And yeah, he's also not sure if 

737
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:49,000
he wants to take the case and 
there's an inciting incident 

738
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,240
that makes him take the case. 
Basically, the arraignment is 

739
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,720
set up to happen and you and the
night before the arraignment is 

740
00:41:54,720 --> 00:41:58,960
the big decision point about how
Kathy's going to plead on behalf

741
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:03,360
of his defendants, which is a 
bit weird by the way, one that 

742
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,400
the defendants don't enter the 
room plea. 

743
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,440
I don't know how accurate that 
is for the American military 

744
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,720
courts. 
That's not how we do things 

745
00:42:09,720 --> 00:42:13,080
here. 
But but it's mad that he's 

746
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,800
waiting till the night before 
the defendants have a right to 

747
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:21,240
determine what their plea is. 
Surely very strange that they've

748
00:42:21,240 --> 00:42:23,640
just let their hands be like 
their fates be in the hands of 

749
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,120
this one guy who they don't even
like. 

750
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:28,120
I mean, there is, there is, 
there is. 

751
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:32,200
The separate bit that I think is
it Downey has actually taken 

752
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,680
Galloway on as council just so 
that she can be part of the team

753
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,360
essentially. 
Yeah, because. 

754
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,880
Because. 
Because his Aunt Ginny wanted an

755
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:40,680
Aunt Ginny. 
Yeah. 

756
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,960
Yeah, and then, but then she 
says, like, I'm not going to 

757
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,480
rock the boat. 
You can remain as lead council, 

758
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,200
which is why you've got a Senate
commander with much more 

759
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,520
experience working for the nine 
months in Lieutenant. 

760
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,080
Very odd. 
Anyway, the 56 minute point of 

761
00:42:56,080 --> 00:43:00,560
the movie, right? 
Galloway is trying to convince 

762
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,680
Kathy to enter a not guilty plea
so these guys get their day in 

763
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,200
court and can actually argue a 
case even though they think 

764
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,160
they're going to get beaten. 
And she does this by going, 

765
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,600
Kathy, you're the only one who 
could do this. 

766
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,960
You know how to win. 
And we need a lawyer who knows 

767
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,360
how to win even though he's 
never been in a courtroom. 

768
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,320
And for the previous 56 minutes,
all she's been doing is talking 

769
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:27,640
smack about him. 
OK, Then 40 seconds later, when 

770
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:31,040
Kathy's humming and horror about
it, he goes, she goes, you know 

771
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,320
what? 
You don't know a thing about the

772
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,000
law. 
You're you're an ambulance 

773
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,320
chaser. 
You're a used car salesman with 

774
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:40,280
a rank. 
It's like, make your mind up. 

775
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:41,640
Demi Moore. 
Do you like it? 

776
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,720
But do you think he's the best 
lawyer who can only win this 

777
00:43:43,720 --> 00:43:44,960
case? 
So do you think he's an idiot 

778
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:45,960
who doesn't know anything about 
the law? 

779
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,080
Like, I understand that she 
might even like to manipulate 

780
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:51,320
him to try test his ego a bit. 
But. 

781
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,240
But yeah, it kind of works 
though, so. 

782
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,400
So she obviously makes him feel 
a bit like shit after insulting 

783
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,760
him like that. 
He goes away, has his long dark 

784
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:00,680
tea. 
Time of the soul. 

785
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,720
I think you see a bits of the 
montage at the start of the 

786
00:44:03,720 --> 00:44:06,640
trailer. 
And then the next day, they go 

787
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,040
to the arraignment, enter the 
plea, he enters that they're not

788
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:11,760
guilty. 
Like, sort of like begins in 

789
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:15,560
earnest, doesn't it? 
And it begins when the, when the

790
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,520
prosecution calls all of the 
platoon. 

791
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:24,560
Yeah, individually, yeah, yeah. 
So you got that, you got that. 

792
00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:26,800
So you get that change. 
You get so you get the change in

793
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,920
in. 
This is good actually. 

794
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:30,800
So this is I think this is like 
the dividing line between the 

795
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,080
first half of the movie, The 
second-half, first half is all 

796
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,800
the set up and you get all the 
character beats and the 

797
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,040
character build up. 
And then once that arraignment 

798
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,680
happens, you get the switch. 
Kathy is like, right, we're 

799
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,560
going to work from my place 
every night from 7:00. 

800
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:49,000
One of my favourite lines in the
film, something that I've 

801
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,000
wrestled with a little bit 
today. 

802
00:44:51,720 --> 00:44:54,960
The only thing I have to eat is 
you who and Cocoa Puffs. 

803
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,720
If you want anything else, bring
it with you and say right. 

804
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,240
Going to say it now, man, I'm a 
dirtbag. 

805
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,080
I'm I'm I'm, I'm the kind of 
human being who would literally 

806
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:10,440
say it as someone all right now 
is generic cereal and generic 

807
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:16,840
flavoured milk is what I assume 
you who is right and say nobody 

808
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:21,160
who is in a life situation when 
all they have is you who and 

809
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,440
Coco Puffs is is a lawyer at 
all. 

810
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,560
None of these people exist. 
These people don't exist. 

811
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,960
This is stealing, stealing 
scumbag valour, right. 

812
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,640
Like I, I, I mean, it's Oh yes, 
it's funny. 

813
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:37,760
He's he's he's quirky, but it's 
like, no, when, when, when 

814
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,560
you're in that kind of position,
you're fucking giving up. 

815
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:44,480
You know what my giving up 
asked? 

816
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:51,200
Fucking dirtbag world. 
I'm the kind of horrible flesh 

817
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:56,640
golem that could exist on cereal
flavoured milk if I had to. 

818
00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:00,720
I don't have a high flying job 
that requires a huge gravement 

819
00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:03,240
like you. 
Like being a lawyer, if you were

820
00:46:03,240 --> 00:46:07,280
sick existing on literally 
nothing but sugar and like and 

821
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,680
like chemically processed milk 
that's probably got lead in it, 

822
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:15,080
you'd see him take like 2 swings
with his little bat and just 

823
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:21,640
fall over in in exhaustion. 
I am not having this slander 

824
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:27,400
against stay at home sons like 
me who worked years to to to 

825
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:31,920
suffer the slings narrows of 
existing on food that's just 

826
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:36,040
consumed for novelty. 
No, no garbage film. 

827
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,280
Oh man. 
Fuck off with your Yukos, you 

828
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,360
lying liar you. 
Lying liar. 

829
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,680
Oh, I was worried I didn't get a
chance to use the Pants on Fire 

830
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:56,600
defence. 
Oh man. 

831
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,120
Hey, let's take a moment to talk
about our friends. 

832
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:04,640
Simon Weinberg, played by by 
Kevin Pollak, because he he gets

833
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:08,000
a difficult job in this movie as
being kind of the the third 

834
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:11,760
wheel, occasional quick giver 
kind of guy. 

835
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:16,120
But he gets but he gets one 
really good scene, which is that

836
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,400
he has a moral compulsion 
against against daughter and 

837
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,160
Tony. 
He doesn't, obviously, he's a 

838
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,920
Navy lawyer. 
He doesn't agree with the Code 

839
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,640
Red thing. 
He's not a fan of hazing 

840
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,440
rituals, doesn't like bullying 
in any of its forms. 

841
00:47:33,240 --> 00:47:37,880
You know, I agree. 
And he is not keen to defend 

842
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:40,240
these guys and doesn't 
understand why they're doing it.

843
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:42,840
And he has an opportunity to get
out the case. 

844
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:45,240
He's put on the spot as to why 
he did it. 

845
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,000
And he's like, because they 
picked a little guy, you know, 

846
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,800
they took the guy what, because 
he couldn't run as fast, 

847
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,960
couldn't run as long and they 
took this guy and they beat him 

848
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:59,320
up for it kind of thing. 
But he he stays anyway. 

849
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,920
But I just wanted to, I just 
wanted to highlight little Kevin

850
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,640
Pollack there because he's 
brilliant and fact for the movie

851
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:11,200
that was going to be cast by 
guess who Jason Alexander was 

852
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:18,240
initially cast for that role 
could have been George Costanza,

853
00:48:18,240 --> 00:48:20,280
but he had to pull out because 
of Seinfeld. 

854
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:29,560
Jesus, there is, you know, a 
kind of there's kind of a little

855
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:34,160
bit of energy about him, though,
when he's like don't have to do 

856
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:35,960
a thing, you know, don't have to
do anything. 

857
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:37,880
So if you go there, don't do 
anything kind of thing that's 

858
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,240
that's actually a little bit of 
Costanza in that that's that's 

859
00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:47,720
scary prescient. 
Oh my God, I am really sorry. 

860
00:48:47,720 --> 00:48:50,800
Now I'm just absolutely just 
recasting all of the pivotal 

861
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,160
characters with the same 
forecast. 

862
00:48:53,720 --> 00:48:57,480
So of course you've got Jerry 
Seinfeld himself playing Kathy. 

863
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:00,560
You've got. 
Elaine. 

864
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:13,160
Elaine, get out. 
And of course, the role, the 

865
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:19,280
role, the role of. 
Justin Chester is Michael 

866
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,280
Richards. 
No, no, I think it's I think 

867
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:26,160
it's Newman. 
I think it's, I think it's weird

868
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:27,520
nightmare. 
I think it's win night. 

869
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:35,000
Just sitting there in his in his
greens, with his big cigar, just

870
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:41,040
with his with his storm and 
Norman physique, just telling 

871
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:46,160
tales about Desert Storm to 
Jerry Seinfeld, who for some 

872
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,360
reason is the trying to make him
believable. 

873
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,720
The trying to pass to make Jerry
fucking Seinfeld believable as 

874
00:49:55,720 --> 00:50:05,400
anything other than a comedian. 
Oh my God. 

875
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,640
And then cream Alex, just like I
said. 

876
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,280
Oh cool rat. 
It's a great right? 

877
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,480
I think it is Kevin Bacon's 
character. 

878
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,720
Yes. 
I mean, I'm going to fucking put

879
00:50:15,720 --> 00:50:19,240
him somewhere. 
It's either that or he's one of 

880
00:50:19,240 --> 00:50:20,960
the two killers. 
Well, I was just. 

881
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,280
I said that was one of the two 
killers, which would be even 

882
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,680
harder to process. 
So yeah, he's yeah, he's the 

883
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:31,040
Kevin Bacon guy. 
Oh my God. 

884
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:36,160
Or is or is the is is is the 
second Lieutenant is the Kiefer 

885
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:36,840
Sutherland. 
Geez. 

886
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:42,640
Oh, God. 
Yeah, man, horrendous that this.

887
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:45,640
Is now a vote racist? 
Vote racist? 

888
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,600
Oh. 
My God, just probably unsubtle 

889
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:54,680
about it. 
This is just straight up fan 

890
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,440
fiction at this point man. 
This is like. 

891
00:50:56,760 --> 00:51:03,640
Where's J Peterman? 
Oh my God. 

892
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:05,440
Is that Markinson? 
Maybe J Peterman? 

893
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:10,160
Oh yeah. 
Just isn't the GTA wash rule. 

894
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:15,080
I knew your son. 
Well, vaguely I I heard his 

895
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:20,080
name, but I falsifies that 
transcript. 

896
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:26,200
I knew what I had to do with 
Elaine you. 

897
00:51:26,720 --> 00:51:32,200
Can always be Burma to me. 
I hope you're watching the court

898
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:38,200
case because I'm only watching 
the Passion, Right. 

899
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:39,960
Sorry. 
Yeah, right. 

900
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,200
Yeah. 
Case has started there. 

901
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:51,000
The government is claiming that 
Kendrick specifically given an 

902
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:56,600
order to everybody not to touch 
Santiago at the same time 

903
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:01,360
Santiago had been granted a 
transfer from the base. 

904
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,320
It was due to leave on that 
transport at 6:00 in the 

905
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:09,960
morning, which is when they say 
the first flight out of Cuba was

906
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:13,400
was taking place. 
So they've they've already lied 

907
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,360
by saying that that is the first
flight when actually it was 

908
00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:17,920
nearly a flight. 
There's a second lie in that 

909
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:20,080
that flight they said he's going
on to didn't exist. 

910
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:26,680
They lie about the order not to 
touch him being given. 

911
00:52:26,720 --> 00:52:29,360
I think maybe, yeah, 
potentially. 

912
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,800
No, that one's true because 
everyone, everyone saw it. 

913
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,000
What they then lie about is that
Kendrick then give a separate 

914
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:41,480
order to Lance Corporal Dawson, 
not down as we lay here, Lance 

915
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:46,360
forward with Dawson alone to do 
the code red on on Ballina 

916
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,520
Santiago. 
So what we see at the beginning 

917
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:53,200
of the case is testimony that 
the order not to touch Santiago,

918
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:54,960
it's taken place, which isn't 
disputed. 

919
00:52:56,360 --> 00:53:00,600
And then the next thing we get 
is the expert testimony of 

920
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:05,280
Christopher Guest from Smile tap
as the doctor about the medical 

921
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:08,400
condition. 
And we find out and it all gets 

922
00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:10,040
stricken from the record. 
Basically, there's a there's a 

923
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:12,840
lot of like little wins that 
they have and lots of losses 

924
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,760
they have. 
They have a bit of a draw over 

925
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,440
the, over the, the testimony of 
everyone saying that the order 

926
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:22,000
had taken place and they kind of
call it for the day and we come 

927
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,800
in the next day. 
The, the medical stuff is very 

928
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,920
much a win for the prosecution 
and a big defeat for the, the 

929
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:29,760
defence. 
So what happens is they, they 

930
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:32,000
kind of badger the witness a 
little bit. 

931
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,200
They they get the one thing that
they needed quite early on, 

932
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:38,440
which was could the lactic 
acidosis which caused the the 

933
00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:41,800
blood to pull in his lungs have 
taken place without a chemical 

934
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:43,960
poison inducing it, which is 
what is claimed by the 

935
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:48,680
prosecution, could have taken 
place without the poison if they

936
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:50,040
had an underlying medical 
condition. 

937
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,160
And does the underlying medical 
condition it would have taken 

938
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:55,080
place match the symptoms that 
Santiago had been presenting 

939
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,320
with? 
They got that bit done quite 

940
00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,120
early and they should have just 
left it there. 

941
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:04,000
But they keep badgering about 
like trying to get the doctor 

942
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:07,640
himself to say that he has given
a lower standard of care to 

943
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,840
Santiago. 
I had personally fucked up and 

944
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:14,160
because they pushed a little bit
too far, they eventually got the

945
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:17,360
whole thing stricken from the 
record, which is a big, big loss

946
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,240
for the defence. 
And that's a bit of a movement 

947
00:54:19,240 --> 00:54:21,240
for them to kind of re evaluate.
Yeah. 

948
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:27,640
So the next bit that happens in 
the case is they get Kendrick on

949
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:29,240
the stand. 
Yeah. 

950
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:35,400
Kendrick is a safeguard lunatic 
and they get something pretty 

951
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:41,000
important out of it, which was 
that a previous could read had 

952
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:45,160
taken place. 
Although they don't get they 

953
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:47,800
don't get into the record that 
it's formally known as Code Red,

954
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,160
even though even though they 
describe it is very much like 1.

955
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,320
I think it gets objected against
and they and they and they get 

956
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:53,680
sustained. 
There's a shit to no objections 

957
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:57,080
in this movie, by the way. 
I don't think real court, real 

958
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:58,200
trials have this many 
objections. 

959
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:04,160
I mean, I just want to hop in 
here and say Sonia is the one of

960
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:09,560
us with the most legal training,
I guess maybe the only one of us

961
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:11,280
with. 
I mean, you've probably had some

962
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:13,880
trainer obviously make, but 
Sandy did go to law school. 

963
00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:16,040
Not legal training. 
Yeah, but yeah, you've, you've, 

964
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:19,800
you've sat on. 
So basically our, our, our court

965
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:25,480
experience so far as I've been 
sued successfully. 

966
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:31,680
I was, I was out of suit. 
I'm a divorce court warrior. 

967
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:35,200
Meg, obviously you've you've 
been involved in a court 

968
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:37,520
martial. 
But that's yeah, that's that's 

969
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:39,480
that's a legal one. 
And then the non legal version 

970
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:43,360
of it is some rehearings which 
have, yeah, I've been in charge 

971
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:47,720
of several times. 
I mean as, as, as, as a baby 

972
00:55:47,720 --> 00:55:49,240
journalist and the student 
journalist. 

973
00:55:49,240 --> 00:55:52,080
I was in court a few times in 
the mags and in the Crown Court 

974
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:55,320
in, in Newcastle, which was 
really funny. 

975
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:57,160
Mainly actions. 
That was pretty, but it was 

976
00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,760
pretty hilarious. 
But Sonia is the one who's got 

977
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,800
actual actual law school 
experience. 

978
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:06,680
So Sonia, how is all this stuff 
playing out here like in the 

979
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:10,560
film? 
Is this is, is this, is this 

980
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,000
cool? 
Or is someone with legal 

981
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,040
training? 
Do you find this? 

982
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:16,640
You find this not believable? 
I don't even know where to start

983
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,720
with this because honestly, the,
the I could start by hating on 

984
00:56:19,720 --> 00:56:27,160
the French, which is always a 
good thing to do, but English 

985
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:31,120
and American common law is very,
very, very distinctly different 

986
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:33,760
from anything we do on the 
continent and especially so in 

987
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:38,160
Germany. 
So in, in all honesty, the, the,

988
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,680
the most accurate answer I could
give you is I don't fucking 

989
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:43,160
know. 
To be honest. 

990
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:51,240
We don't do like jury trials as 
I mean, we, we, we didn't really

991
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,720
happen have. 
You have you seen the movie 

992
00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:56,000
Anatomy before? 
No. 

993
00:56:57,240 --> 00:56:59,120
Oh man. 
So it was like 2 years ago, I 

994
00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:02,720
think it came out and it's a, 
it's a French German 

995
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:07,360
construction about A, and I 
think it's actually in French 

996
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,600
and German, but I think they, I 
think the trial happens in 

997
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:16,440
France anyway, a couple, the 
husband from a man and wife 

998
00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:22,760
falls out of a second floor 
window from the house, which is 

999
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:28,840
currently like in getting done 
up into the snow outside and 

1000
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:33,520
bricks and neck and dies. 
And we see that happen. 

1001
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:35,120
We don't see, we don't see the 
fall happen. 

1002
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:37,560
So we don't know what actually 
happened, whether he's pushed or

1003
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,800
he fell or whatever happened. 
But we do see the trial. 

1004
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:42,480
But the trial's all done on a 
French court. 

1005
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:46,440
And it's so different to like 
anything that Rory, you would 

1006
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:51,520
have seen like, like it's, it's,
you know how in a, in a, in a 

1007
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,520
court, like, like in this, you 
have a, a witness pro on the 

1008
00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:58,000
stand. 
They get an examination from the

1009
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:01,560
prosecution, a cross examination
from the defence, the 

1010
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:03,560
opportunity for the prosecution 
into a rebuttal to anything 

1011
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:05,720
raised. 
And then it moves on kind of 

1012
00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:09,080
thing. 
Nowhere anywhere near that, that

1013
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:12,000
level of organised. 
It's like they bring a person 

1014
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:14,600
onto the onto the stands and 
then we just have a frigging 

1015
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:18,200
argument for 20 minutes and the 
judge and the judge goes right. 

1016
00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:21,080
I'm tired of this next one. 
Just just a big like my lawyer 

1017
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:25,120
is going to shout at your lawyer
and just like, and then I'm 

1018
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:29,120
going to chip in occasionally 
and and like and like people, 

1019
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,600
people can just see people are 
always arranged in a semi 

1020
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:33,520
circle. 
People get called upon to yell 

1021
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,280
at any time they want. 
It's just mental. 

1022
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:38,960
Actually amazing. 
It's a great movie. 

1023
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,320
It's a great movie that the the 
court case bit only takes up 

1024
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,200
like a small portion. 
They do have like like 

1025
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:45,600
testimony. 
They do have proper testimony, 

1026
00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:47,960
like the witness comes up and 
just give like testimony and 

1027
00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:51,920
then and then is is grilled. 
But it it's it's weird. 

1028
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:57,160
It feels so much more like 
flowing in a way that than than 

1029
00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,360
the British courts. 
Mental ania, check that out. 

1030
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:02,680
We also don't get funny little 
wigs. 

1031
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:07,360
Yeah, yeah, that's right. 
So the guy's got a robe on, but 

1032
00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:08,920
he hasn't got a funny little 
wig. 

1033
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,800
He's got like a, a crew, like a 
short crew cut hair and then a 

1034
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:15,920
then a cool little robe. 
Wild. 

1035
00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:20,800
So we've had the end of the case
and we get we get Kendrick up. 

1036
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:24,080
He he gets his cross examination
and then we kind of find out the

1037
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:25,360
background a little bit for 
this. 

1038
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:29,920
So an important detail. 
Lance Corporal Dawson had been 

1039
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:34,800
previously punished by Kendrick 
for defying an order and the 

1040
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:38,400
order for him was morally 
incorrect and him through his 

1041
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,400
own personal judgement made a 
moral choice to defy that order 

1042
00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:43,240
and showed moral courage in 
doing so. 

1043
00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:46,880
A guy had been punished by being
restrained into his barracks 

1044
00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:50,640
with only water and vitamin 
pills and then Dawson gave him 

1045
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:52,320
food and then was punished for 
giving him food. 

1046
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:58,720
So very important background to 
demonstrate his what we call in 

1047
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:03,680
the British legal system. 
But in Latin, the men's rear the

1048
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:06,240
state of mind in order to carry 
out the crime. 

1049
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:09,280
So obviously we've we've seen 
that from that, from being 

1050
01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:12,560
punished for defending someone 
doing the morally right thing. 

1051
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:15,600
He got punished. 
So when he gets into the order 

1052
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:17,440
to do something morally 
reprehensible, he's more likely 

1053
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,640
to follow it. 
That happens. 

1054
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:26,280
We have a whole cool bit where 
they talk about Code Reds and 

1055
01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:29,960
whether or not Code Reds exist. 
And Kevin Bacon gets all the 

1056
01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,160
different like Doctrine 
publications out and goes like 

1057
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:33,800
show me in here where it 
mentions Code Red. 

1058
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:35,320
Show me here where it mentions 
Code Red. 

1059
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:38,400
And then you see like Tom Cruise
win that one by going to new bar

1060
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:41,040
and go show me in here where it 
says where the mess hall is. 

1061
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:43,480
And it's like, well, you won't 
find out in there. 

1062
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,880
It's like, well, you're telling 
me the entire time you've been 

1063
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:47,840
in Guantanamo Bay, you've not 
had a single meal. 

1064
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:49,520
It's like, no, Sir, 3 square a 
day. 

1065
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:51,760
It's like, well, how did you get
to the metal? 

1066
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:54,160
I just followed the crowd at 
chow time and. 

1067
01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:56,960
It's like. 
Nothing further. 

1068
01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:58,280
Boom. 
Brilliant. 

1069
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:00,400
That's a good move. 
It's like so theatrical how 

1070
01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:05,040
Kathy just, like, walks out and 
just takes the book out of Kevin

1071
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,240
Bacon's hands as he approaches 
the witnesses. 

1072
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,840
Like, yeah, that's trying to 
cool. 

1073
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,240
That was. 
That's mad swag. 

1074
01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:16,480
It really is, yeah. 
It's really good. 

1075
01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:20,880
They get they get one really big
set back and this is like the 

1076
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:26,320
sort of end of the second act. 
SO11 sort of founding basis for 

1077
01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:28,840
their case that they've that 
they haven't even queried in 

1078
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,960
their research prior is that 
both Dawson and Danny received 

1079
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:36,120
the order at the same time in 
the same place to to collect the

1080
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:41,640
code read and then it through 
cross examination of God of 

1081
01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:44,840
Downey, Downey's understand and 
it's Kevin Bacon gets out of 

1082
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,200
Downey that actually due to a 
flat tyre of the Jeep that would

1083
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:49,080
get him back to his barracks in 
time. 

1084
01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:52,840
He had to he had a run back. 
He was 45 minutes late and 

1085
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,200
therefore was not at the 
location at the time that the 

1086
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,960
defence has alleged that the 
order to give the code red was 

1087
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:02,520
made which was 5 minutes after 
the 1630 finishing briefing. 

1088
01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:07,000
That he would have arrived back 
after like 1700 and and would 

1089
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:10,360
have missed that order for 
Dawson and Downey together could

1090
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:12,040
not have received the order to 
give the code red. 

1091
01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:18,040
Once Corporal Dawson gave Downey
the order, laid the order to 

1092
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:23,000
give the code red which is that 
big like oh we fucked up moment.

1093
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:29,040
The second one is Markinson, 
who's who's come out with the 

1094
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:32,480
road work once the trial begun, 
has an attack of his conscience 

1095
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:35,920
and decides to end his own life 
before he can take the stand. 

1096
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:41,880
So that's that's that fucked. 
So this is this causes like the 

1097
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:43,040
team to have a bit of a crash 
out. 

1098
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:46,360
Tom Cruise gets pissed. 
What do we think of what do we 

1099
01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:47,640
think of Tom Cruise's drunk 
acting? 

1100
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:50,560
Had some thoughts on this 
actually. 

1101
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,960
You guys want to go first before
I bring my opinions in on it? 

1102
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:55,800
No. 
Please proceed. 

1103
01:02:56,000 --> 01:03:00,840
It doesn't appear to be really 
drunk at all. 

1104
01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:02,720
There's no kind of slurring of 
words. 

1105
01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:05,520
There's there's there's like a 
bit of like a dissent admission,

1106
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:07,640
but he doesn't appear to be 
drunk at all. 

1107
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:11,400
But it's also not shitty. 
It can be so worsted kind of 

1108
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:15,160
kind of drunk acting like it's 
not flopping all over the stage 

1109
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:18,440
kind of thing. 
It's it doesn't look especially 

1110
01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:22,320
believable, but it's not the 
worst I've seen. 

1111
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:28,480
But like, yeah, I, I guess my 
thoughts were it's like, I don't

1112
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:31,040
think Tom Cruise drinks. 
That's what I was going to say. 

1113
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:33,440
Yeah, I don't think he drinks at
all. 

1114
01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:39,280
And when you look at drunk 
acting by, I'm just going to 

1115
01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:42,280
quickly slow things down because
I want to get this guy's name 

1116
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:45,240
absolutely right. 
So when? 

1117
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:49,560
So when you see John Dunsworth 
in Trailer Park Boys, rest in 

1118
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,120
peace. 
John Dunsworth gone through soon

1119
01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:56,480
as Mr Leahy. 
That's an incredible drug, 

1120
01:03:56,480 --> 01:04:01,480
acting a man at the end of his 
rope, a man who's absolutely 

1121
01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:03,640
lost in the sauce. 
He didn't drink. 

1122
01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,920
He was a tea toler. 
Yeah. 

1123
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:15,040
I mean, I am the liquor, Randy, 
you know, like, hey, hey, hey. 

1124
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:18,000
He's a tea toler. 
Tom Cruise, I think is probably 

1125
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,760
never, like, allowed alcohol 
that touches, touches mouth. 

1126
01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:23,920
I don't think as a person, Tom 
Cruise has ever really been 

1127
01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:27,840
around people who have probably 
drunk much because it's like, 

1128
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:31,000
OK, Tom, you've got to be a 
drunk guy. 

1129
01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:38,440
OK, So I'm, I'm, I'm just a bit 
off kilter and I'm a bit wet 

1130
01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:40,720
because it's been raining. 
This is what drunk is, right? 

1131
01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:45,760
I mean, like, I mean, like, I'm 
the fact that I have to have an 

1132
01:04:45,760 --> 01:04:48,840
actor say you're drunk or 
something to that effect. 

1133
01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:52,160
And then he pulls out a fucking 
bottle of bourbon and it's like,

1134
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:57,560
yeah, it's like, no, it's not. 
It isn't the worst drunk acting.

1135
01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:02,320
It isn't comically bad, it's 
just not really believable. 

1136
01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:05,120
And he also drives drunk as well
immediately afterwards, which 

1137
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:07,520
isn't cool by the way. 
That's really not cool. 

1138
01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,920
Yeah. 
Yeah, arrive alive, dude, you 

1139
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,640
know? 
You get the impression that his 

1140
01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:17,440
frame of reference for drunk 
people is drunk people. 

1141
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,600
In the films. 
He's kind of, he's almost 

1142
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:24,040
mimicking a little bit of that. 
I mean, do me wrong, he doesn't 

1143
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,120
live like like a shut away. 
He's oh. 

1144
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,280
Absolutely, yeah. 
He's been asked in public and 

1145
01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:31,760
seen people having parties and 
drinking before, you know, like 

1146
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,520
you're not naive to that. 
Yeah, but but yeah, you do get 

1147
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:37,280
the impression that he doesn't 
surround himself with, with 

1148
01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,600
drinkers, isn't a drinker. 
I think, I think for him, I 

1149
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:44,600
don't want to speculate on the 
man's inner psyche, but but 

1150
01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:47,360
going off stuff he said in 
interviews and stuff, he I don't

1151
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:49,440
he believes in medicating in any
way whatsoever. 

1152
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:53,600
And I don't think he would like 
to rest, like to divest control 

1153
01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:56,360
of his own faculties to, to a, 
to a, to a substance. 

1154
01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:00,680
You know, you remember that Ty 
Reidy did on God. 

1155
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:02,880
I don't want to get this wrong, 
but I think it might be 60 

1156
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:05,480
minutes or something when he was
talking or he had an interview 

1157
01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:09,600
where he was talking about how 
he he really disagreed with 

1158
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:14,600
Brooke Shields medicating for 
depression and. 

1159
01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:16,680
And that's I'm. 
Getting. 

1160
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:20,080
I'm I'm not saying I'm not sick 
of Scientology thing. 

1161
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:22,680
Isn't it because that I got that
against like psychiatry and 

1162
01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:26,280
stuff like that? 
Do you know that he is actually 

1163
01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:28,960
in the past? 
He's like like banned people 

1164
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:32,000
from drinking like on the cast 
of his films and stuff. 

1165
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,520
I've quickly just googled it on 
Top Gun Maverick. 

1166
01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:38,800
He imposed A strict new alcohol 
rule for cast and crew. 

1167
01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:43,440
It's sad and it's like obviously
just Google. 

1168
01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,640
Quick summary here saying of 
course Sauce has said that while

1169
01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:48,800
they may have wanted a drink, 
they understood the need to be 

1170
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:51,360
in the best possible shape for 
the demanding stunts and flight 

1171
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:52,640
scenes. 
Yeah, so they have that. 

1172
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:57,400
They have that big crash out 
about about, about the case as 

1173
01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,720
you, as you rightly say, Tom 
Cruise then goes off and drinks,

1174
01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:02,520
drives for a little bit, but 
dodgy basically what happens is 

1175
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:05,920
he yells in the face of Joanne 
Galloway, she storms out. 

1176
01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:08,400
He kind of has a quite a bit of 
a realisation. 

1177
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:11,480
He has a chat with. 
He has this kind of like picking

1178
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:16,040
the hero up, motivational chat 
with with Weinberg. 

1179
01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:18,320
Yeah. 
And again, Right. 

1180
01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,080
So, right. 
This is some Aaron Sorkin 

1181
01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:22,720
writing here. 
It's, you know, how I mentioned 

1182
01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:26,080
earlier on about Joan Galloway 
giving like a bit of a speech 

1183
01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:29,480
to, to to Cruz that seemed to 
come out of nowhere and then 

1184
01:07:29,480 --> 01:07:33,080
somehow achieved its desire of 
effect. 

1185
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:37,400
Weinberg does the same thing 
here where he's like talking 

1186
01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:43,360
about Kathy's dad, who's this 
renowned trial lawyer like that 

1187
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:47,000
that people have heard of. 
He obviously had a long, storied

1188
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:51,000
career, passed away before Kathy
could ever get into law school, 

1189
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:55,080
Lingering insecurity, daddy 
issues, stuff going on there. 

1190
01:07:56,760 --> 01:08:01,480
He then tells Kathy, look, 
you're the guy doing this case. 

1191
01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:05,320
If anyone can do this, it's you.
And if I had to pick somebody 

1192
01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:07,160
out of everybody in the world, 
between you and your dad, if I 

1193
01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:10,000
had to pick one of you to defend
these guys, I'd pick you every 

1194
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:11,600
day of the week and twice on 
Sundays. 

1195
01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:14,400
And it's like, where are you 
based on that from? 

1196
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:17,040
He doesn't even. 
This is his first ever case and 

1197
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:22,800
he's losing it like but but 
you're a good friend, Weinberg, 

1198
01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:27,000
I'll give you that. 
He's a very good hype man for 

1199
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:29,760
him. 
He's a good hype man so he he 

1200
01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:32,600
says the right thing when he's 
needed but but I don't really 

1201
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:34,680
believe him. 
Well, you see, I think 

1202
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,920
Weinberg's in our monologue and 
way of thinking. 

1203
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:40,439
It's like, of course I'm going 
to choose him over that's that's

1204
01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:45,040
fucking dead. 
I think you're like, bring in an

1205
01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:51,160
urn with the dad's ashes in, put
it at the desk and just go work 

1206
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:55,600
your magic, Sir. 
Like there's just like silence 

1207
01:08:55,960 --> 01:09:02,200
did silence in the courtroom 
while Kathy seniors spirits just

1208
01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:05,760
projected in the mains of all 
the fucking jury in the panel 

1209
01:09:05,760 --> 01:09:08,520
and the witnesses and it's like,
God damn. 

1210
01:09:09,319 --> 01:09:10,040
Yeah. 
So of course he's soon. 

1211
01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:11,040
Of course he's going to choose 
the guy. 

1212
01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:14,319
He was actually alive. 
It's brilliant. 

1213
01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:17,960
There's another, there's another
bit of tension they've put into 

1214
01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:19,800
the movie here at this point, 
which I think is also a bit 

1215
01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:20,600
spurious. 
And I've looked it up. 

1216
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:23,040
That's one of the only bits of 
research I've done, though one 

1217
01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:26,880
of the things that's mentioned a
few times, Kevin Bacon 

1218
01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:31,000
introduces it I think quite 
early in the trial in that 

1219
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:33,600
scene, whether in the the bar 
and they have that falling out. 

1220
01:09:34,279 --> 01:09:39,160
Yeah, you're a lousy fucking 
softball player, Jack is if you 

1221
01:09:40,359 --> 01:09:44,399
accuse in the during your 
questioning, if you accuse 

1222
01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:48,000
Colonel Jessup of any 
impropriety and then you are not

1223
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,880
found to be correct, you will 
get court martials. 

1224
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:53,960
Yeah. 
And I was like, and I was like, 

1225
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:57,640
that seems like a really shit 
way to run a justice system if 

1226
01:09:57,640 --> 01:09:59,840
you are hamstringing the 
questions that can be asked by 

1227
01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:01,920
counsel to witnesses in such a 
manner. 

1228
01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:04,520
Like, surely what goes on in the
courtroom is already pretty 

1229
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:05,960
sealed. 
Yeah. 

1230
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:07,640
It doesn't need it doesn't need 
to become a matter of 

1231
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:09,000
disciplinary. 
It just needs to be proven or 

1232
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:10,440
disproven. 
Right. 

1233
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,920
Anyway, I looked it up and, 
yeah, in the lines you're 

1234
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:16,080
questioning, you can ask what 
you want. 

1235
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:17,240
It's not. 
You're not going to get run for 

1236
01:10:17,240 --> 01:10:17,880
it. 
Yeah. 

1237
01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:20,560
I mean, it'd be a different 
matter if he was standing on 

1238
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:22,320
Main Street or yelling it in the
mess hall. 

1239
01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:25,480
But he's asking. 
He's asking questions to court. 

1240
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:28,560
Law, yeah. 
It's like, I mean, 

1241
01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:31,360
constitutionally protected 
speech, right? 

1242
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:34,280
I mean. 
Yeah. 

1243
01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:39,040
But nevertheless, Despite that 
hanging over him, Galloway 

1244
01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:41,640
convinces Kathy to put Jessup on
the stand. 

1245
01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:45,440
And then we are coming into like
the final third of the movie, 

1246
01:10:45,440 --> 01:10:48,720
which is like the it's not even 
a third, really, but it's like 

1247
01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:51,320
the last sort of 25 minutes, I 
suppose is, is, is the 

1248
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:54,760
questioning of of Jessup. 
And this is like amazing stuff. 

1249
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:56,560
And I don't need to hype this 
up. 

1250
01:10:56,560 --> 01:11:00,080
Like this is like wildly and 
popularly known to be amazing 

1251
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:01,240
stuff. 
But this is the best bit of the 

1252
01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,880
movie of me. 
This is where it like kicks into

1253
01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:06,480
OverDrive because what it 
becomes. 

1254
01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:12,000
So we've seen this intricate 
trial, relatively intricate of 

1255
01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:14,360
disproving certain aspects of 
the case as we've been going. 

1256
01:11:14,440 --> 01:11:17,000
And then after all that, after 
we've been through all that 

1257
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:23,320
evidence, because there's been 
such a concerted effort by by 

1258
01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:27,760
Jessup and Co to cover their 
tracks, all that's left is 

1259
01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:29,720
playing upon Jessup's arrogance,
I suppose. 

1260
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:33,720
Obviously got No Fear of of 
caffeine just sees Kathy as like

1261
01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:38,720
a, you know, little piss Ant 2 
ringer with with with one medal.

1262
01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:42,560
Who gives a shit about him? 
I'll come to this courtroom and 

1263
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:45,240
I'll stump all over him and then
I'll walk out of here probably 

1264
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:48,360
get him rude again, you know, 
for for my trouble. 

1265
01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:51,920
I don't give a shit. 
So he goes there thinking, 

1266
01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:54,960
thinking. 
He's like King Louis and and. 

1267
01:11:56,000 --> 01:12:03,200
I'm fucking sorry. 
I've got King Louie and trust 

1268
01:12:03,200 --> 01:12:04,160
greens. 
Just chilling. 

1269
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:08,200
They're like so. 
So you claimed to be the king of

1270
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:10,120
the swingers as you ordered this
code, right? 

1271
01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:15,440
Is that true? 
The jungle VIP rest this man 

1272
01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:18,120
this this, this modest in 
uniform. 

1273
01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:21,000
This man is not. 
How did he how did he become a 

1274
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:24,880
Marine? 
I got the rock, Sir. 

1275
01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:33,000
Yeah, but I love all this really
good acting. 

1276
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:37,160
Like head to head tom-tom Cruise
kingly. 

1277
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:39,960
Fucking hell. 
Like where did that even come 

1278
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:42,960
from? 
I don't know right off my Dome 

1279
01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:49,040
and and, but, but it's that 
awesome bit of like right. 

1280
01:12:49,280 --> 01:12:52,240
So the big lie that they they 
span when they were concocting 

1281
01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:54,920
this whole thing was that they 
were going to transfer Santiago 

1282
01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:57,720
Santiago off the base. 
So that's the first thing he 

1283
01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:00,200
presses on and there's a little 
bit of theatre. 

1284
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:02,680
I I fact checked this as well, 
but there's a little bit of 

1285
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:05,440
theatre And he brings the two 
airmen in from the Andrews Air 

1286
01:13:05,440 --> 01:13:09,080
Force Base to sit in the 
courtroom as if they're about to

1287
01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:13,000
get calls for testifying, which 
you see Nicholson notice. 

1288
01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,040
And the first, sorry, the first 
thing you asked about actually 

1289
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:18,800
is it is to do with Santiago's 
transfer off the base. 

1290
01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:25,120
He remembers that when they were
inspecting Santiago's cabin, 

1291
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:28,040
they looked in his wardrobes and
seen that he hadn't packed. 

1292
01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:33,520
So they go, right, this guy was 
going to get transferred off the

1293
01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:35,960
base, first flight in the 
morning. 

1294
01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:40,760
He was founded at 0100 flights 
at 06. 

1295
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:44,280
And yet all his clothes are 
neatly hanging, these 

1296
01:13:44,480 --> 01:13:47,400
footlockers neatly folded. 
He hasn't packed a single thing.

1297
01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:51,160
We've got his phone records. 
He didn't call a single person. 

1298
01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:53,680
He wrote 14 letters in nine 
months trying to get off the 

1299
01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:54,960
base. 
And then when he gets his 

1300
01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:58,440
transfer order, he doesn't tell 
a soul, doesn't ring his parents

1301
01:13:58,440 --> 01:14:00,720
to tell him he's coming, doesn't
ring his friend to ask him to 

1302
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:04,080
pick him up at the airport. 
Not a single soul is informed. 

1303
01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:11,000
So we'll come back to that. 
Meanwhile, like he he, he starts

1304
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:14,520
talking about when you get an 
order to, to, to men follow it. 

1305
01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:18,600
He's like, yeah, yeah, you 
might, you never worked in a 

1306
01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:20,920
forward area, you never worked 
up threat, blah, blah, blah, 

1307
01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:25,560
blah, blah here, you know, when 
when you give an order, you 

1308
01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:28,000
follow it or people who are in 
danger, it's like grave danger. 

1309
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:32,120
It's like, is there any ever 
kind all all that stuff. 

1310
01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:35,480
It's so good. 
So you go through all that and 

1311
01:14:35,480 --> 01:14:38,960
then finally it catches them in 
the, in the, the, the 

1312
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:43,200
contradiction, which is if you 
give an order and it has to be 

1313
01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:46,840
followed and your men 
unquestionably follow them. 

1314
01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:49,520
And there's never any risk of 
any men not following your 

1315
01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:51,240
orders. 
And you order them not to touch 

1316
01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:54,160
Santiago. 
Why did you order Santiago to be

1317
01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:57,400
transferred off the base? 
I love that. 

1318
01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:04,600
And he's like, and he's like, so
and that's when he starts to get

1319
01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:06,160
like really hostile, really 
pissy. 

1320
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:09,840
He's like that before then he's 
like these two Marines are in 

1321
01:15:09,840 --> 01:15:13,120
trial for their lives. 
Please tell me that you've got 

1322
01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:17,360
something more than a phone bill
like, like all that. 

1323
01:15:17,360 --> 01:15:19,480
I love doing the impression, by 
the way, I don't know what's 

1324
01:15:19,480 --> 01:15:25,920
come across. 
And and he's talking about like,

1325
01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:29,680
you know, his own importance 
into national security. 

1326
01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:33,760
He's just, he's just super like 
up his own arse, super arrogant.

1327
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:36,720
And eventually he's like, I want
the truth. 

1328
01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:41,240
You can't handle the truth. 
Incredible speech, which is pure

1329
01:15:41,240 --> 01:15:47,880
Aaron Sorkin like awesomeness. 
Get through the whole speech and

1330
01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:52,160
you have that clap bit, that 
clap bit where Kathy like just 

1331
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:54,920
almost brushes it off and just 
goes straight back into the 

1332
01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:58,880
attack again, having just like 
ignored that big cluster from, 

1333
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:01,160
from, from, from Jessup was 
like, did you order the code 

1334
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,400
red? 
You got that right out here, 

1335
01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:07,600
which is phenomenal. 
And then it all goes quiet. 

1336
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:12,600
Yeah. 
And then like, he's still like, 

1337
01:16:13,480 --> 01:16:15,840
yeah, he's still like, pissed. 
And then he doesn't understand. 

1338
01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:17,960
Like everyone like, it's all 
going to be quiet. 

1339
01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:20,520
The judge, like, orders the 
board to step out the room to go

1340
01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:22,000
to an entry room. 
They start getting up. 

1341
01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:24,040
Everyone rises, they get up and 
they start walking out. 

1342
01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:27,000
And he's like, what's going on? 
This is ridiculous. 

1343
01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:28,320
I don't have to sit here for 
this. 

1344
01:16:28,440 --> 01:16:31,160
I'm going to get on a play. 
And there's like a moment of 

1345
01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:37,080
silence where I think Kathy 
needs to like indicate to to 

1346
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:42,520
the, the the US Marines, Kevin 
Bacon's character that like, you

1347
01:16:42,520 --> 01:16:46,720
need to take over this bit now. 
And he's like, yeah, OK, we need

1348
01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:48,880
to, we need to like, hang the 
trial for a second. 

1349
01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:52,760
And then he gets up, tries to 
walk away. 

1350
01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:56,520
The judge calls for the the MPs 
to come. 

1351
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:57,800
And he's like, what's going 
fuck. 

1352
01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:00,640
And he's like taking a second. 
Then he like, looks at Kathy and

1353
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:03,360
he spins towards Kathy. 
And then, like, lunges at him. 

1354
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:05,120
He's like, I'm gonna RIP out 
your eyes. 

1355
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:09,200
And you, yeah, go RIP out your 
eyes and piss down your dead 

1356
01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:10,760
skull. 
You fuck with a round Marine. 

1357
01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:13,960
Fuck it. 
Oh man, So good. 

1358
01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:19,480
Yeah. 
But what I love about this is so

1359
01:17:19,480 --> 01:17:20,800
that's always that's the big 
climax, right? 

1360
01:17:20,880 --> 01:17:23,680
I love that there's a there's a 
there's a few cool bits that 

1361
01:17:23,680 --> 01:17:27,440
have like led to this moment. 
You you see the seeds of it 

1362
01:17:27,440 --> 01:17:30,680
coming like like Mars off. 
You see, we've been watching the

1363
01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:32,280
whole movie. 
We've seen like how arrogant 

1364
01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:36,120
Jessup is. 
And like, as always in in in 

1365
01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:39,680
media, like evil defeats itself 
in in eventually. 

1366
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:41,920
You see this like Stephen King 
all the time, like the big bad 

1367
01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:43,280
actually ends up being its own 
demise. 

1368
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:45,720
He's his own demise. 
He's his own worst enemy. 

1369
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:48,640
He's so cocky and he's so like 
arrogant and he just thinks he's

1370
01:17:48,640 --> 01:17:50,240
untouchable and he thinks he's 
so important. 

1371
01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:52,280
He's got such a like an 
overinflated sense of his own 

1372
01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:54,280
self importance that he thinks 
he's bigger than the 

1373
01:17:54,280 --> 01:17:57,160
institutions around him. 
And because this is Aaron Sorkin

1374
01:17:57,160 --> 01:17:59,360
and he believes in a better 
world, he's proven not to be the

1375
01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:01,200
case. 
So so there's that. 

1376
01:18:01,480 --> 01:18:04,320
And you see it come up a couple 
of times where like he pushes 

1377
01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:07,320
himself a little bit too far. 
He's a he's a bit like, he's a 

1378
01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:10,160
bit pissy with Kathy. 
He's like, I'd prefer it if you 

1379
01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:13,320
called me Colonel or Sir when 
I'm in here. 

1380
01:18:13,520 --> 01:18:14,840
I believe I've earned that 
right. 

1381
01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:18,840
And then and then he disrespects
the court straight away. 

1382
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:22,480
And then the, and the judge is 
like I, I prefer if you called 

1383
01:18:22,480 --> 01:18:25,160
me judge or your honour, I'm 
quite sure I've earned that 

1384
01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:30,040
right smack. 
I love the judge by the way. 

1385
01:18:30,040 --> 01:18:35,200
He's really good. 
Is so yeah. 

1386
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:41,000
Jack Nicholson's character is 
just a lack of respect and in 

1387
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:46,960
fact, hostility to to coffee is 
just the lengths he goes to. 

1388
01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:53,120
It's like, I mean, he uses some 
pretty choice slurs about his 

1389
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:58,680
uniform for a start. 
Like like the native reporting 

1390
01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:06,880
name for the Big 15 fighter, you
know, for just he he infers he's

1391
01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:09,560
got a bit of a pretty gay mouth.
At one point. 

1392
01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:12,200
I forgot the actual words he 
used, but it's very much like, 

1393
01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:16,600
oh, he's he really is a 
horrible, degenerate piece of 

1394
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:17,600
shit. 
I mean. 

1395
01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:20,080
He's not, he's not that senior 
an officer, by the way. 

1396
01:19:20,080 --> 01:19:21,480
Yeah. 
Yeah, he fucking isn't Italian. 

1397
01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:23,680
It's crazy, but I think that's 
one of the big bollocks. 

1398
01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:26,120
Yeah, he goes around the place 
like he owns the world. 

1399
01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:28,160
Yeah, yeah, he might be. 
He might be getting a I was 

1400
01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:30,480
going. 
To say soon he's a he's a 

1401
01:19:30,480 --> 01:19:35,080
Colonel. 
Like like I don't, I don't know 

1402
01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:37,440
about your military, but 
Lieutenant Colonel, this is the 

1403
01:19:37,440 --> 01:19:41,400
most pre evolent rank we have 
among amongst officers is 

1404
01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:45,000
there's so bloody many of them 
and he's just wandering higher 

1405
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,920
than that. 
He's a he's a man. 

1406
01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:55,080
Yeah, he's fuck, he's the 
comment or minesweepers, but he 

1407
01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:56,840
acts like he's the First Sea 
Lord. 

1408
01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:00,240
He's yeah, he's not even a 
Commodore. 

1409
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:02,920
He's less than a Commodore. 
So, so, so he's a, he's a 

1410
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:05,920
Colonel equivalent, equivalent 
in the in the wrong name, at 

1411
01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:09,040
least to a foreign captain. 
So, you know, next above that is

1412
01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:14,160
Brigadier, Brigadier Commodore, 
you know, and vice versa. 

1413
01:20:14,440 --> 01:20:18,800
Yeah. 
So he's, he's, he's not, he's I 

1414
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:21,280
had a more senior officer attend
my fucking pass out when I was 

1415
01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:23,960
as the VIP when I was rating, 
for God's sake. 

1416
01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:27,840
Yeah. 
I mean, and like, again, this 

1417
01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:33,240
guy who was essentially A 
relatively small cog in a big 

1418
01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:37,560
machine as whole brand is based 
on the fact that I'm this guy 

1419
01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:43,480
defending America's borders 
against cheques, notes Cuba. 

1420
01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:48,120
Yeah. 
And it's like fucking I, I am, I

1421
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:53,240
am defending America against 
Cuba's not going to fucking 

1422
01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:56,960
invade in America. 
You know, like it actually. 

1423
01:20:56,960 --> 01:20:59,480
The Americans decided the other 
way and failed. 

1424
01:20:59,480 --> 01:21:02,400
So I don't know there's really 
regarding who there and why not 

1425
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:06,080
fences? 
That means fucking the movie. 

1426
01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:10,800
We should do it's. 
But it's wild of me. 

1427
01:21:10,800 --> 01:21:17,440
It's like, it's like even then 
in like in a War was released in

1428
01:21:17,440 --> 01:21:21,080
1991 out of nations that were an
existential risk to the United 

1429
01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:24,960
States of America, right? 
Cuba's like going to be close to

1430
01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,440
the bottom, very close to the 
bottom. 

1431
01:21:27,720 --> 01:21:31,080
You know, it's like and there's 
this whole very much Oh, he's 

1432
01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:33,600
like and because because it's a 
reputation he builds for 

1433
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:35,480
himself. 
He's his own PR kind of guy, 

1434
01:21:35,480 --> 01:21:38,880
isn't he? 
All these stories like, ah, he 

1435
01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:41,640
talks softly and carrying on 
that division kind of thing. 

1436
01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:45,000
And and he got the impression 
that he kind of that he kind of 

1437
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:47,800
did OK and does not storm. 
And then they've then they've 

1438
01:21:47,800 --> 01:21:50,920
given him this, this kush job in
Cuba, which all of a sudden is, 

1439
01:21:51,440 --> 01:21:53,600
is the most fucking high stakes 
job in the world. 

1440
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:56,520
I said we've got to hold these 
goddamn Cubans back. 

1441
01:21:56,760 --> 01:21:59,000
We've got to hold them back. 
Guys, I think what the Hell's 

1442
01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:00,560
going to happen? 
Holy shit. 

1443
01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:05,560
You know, fucking the the yeah, 
they're going to invade America 

1444
01:22:05,560 --> 01:22:08,360
and bring loads of high quality 
dark rum shit. 

1445
01:22:09,080 --> 01:22:12,200
If America was so deeply still 
involved in the Cold War, they 

1446
01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:14,720
wouldn't have intervened in the 
Gulf War, you know what I mean? 

1447
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:19,320
Yeah, exactly. 
Yeah, it's just just ridiculous.

1448
01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:20,960
Yeah. 
So yeah, he spins. 

1449
01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:22,920
He spins a big fatwat about how 
great he is. 

1450
01:22:23,320 --> 01:22:26,000
And he's just a he's just a 
career politician with a with a 

1451
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:28,240
crass mouth, isn't he? 
That's that's essentially it. 

1452
01:22:28,480 --> 01:22:31,600
Only I can hold the Buena Vista 
Social Club at Bay. 

1453
01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:36,680
Yeah, yeah, your Latin rhythms 
are held away by the strong 

1454
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:41,480
right hand of Uncle Sam. 
And the strong left work for El 

1455
01:22:41,480 --> 01:22:43,120
Presidente. 
It's. 

1456
01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:49,120
Do you want your kids to grow up
in a Banana Republic and start 

1457
01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:51,120
up a Coca-Cola Republic that 
they're now fuck? 

1458
01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:55,400
Every day I live 300 feet away 
from the Taquita lady. 

1459
01:22:56,800 --> 01:23:00,760
Funny, her bananas of me. 
Listen, I live 300 feet away 

1460
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:04,160
from 1950s American cars that 
are still kept in good condition

1461
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:08,200
and other Cuban stereotypes. 
It's horrifying out there. 

1462
01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:11,880
Good God. 
It's like, and that's probably a

1463
01:23:11,880 --> 01:23:14,680
Cuban cigar E smoking as well as
you're in the scene as well. 

1464
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:18,400
So sure. 
Yeah, you know, I was told in 

1465
01:23:18,400 --> 01:23:24,040
beg a stupid common amount that 
that whole I eat breakfast 4000 

1466
01:23:24,040 --> 01:23:28,080
feet away from. 
So I I eat breakfast in my new 

1467
01:23:28,080 --> 01:23:30,880
buns. 
I eat breakfast roughly 40 

1468
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:35,400
metres away from my own staff, 
which seems considerably worse 

1469
01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:39,280
than Cubans because they are 
intend on making my life a 

1470
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:43,240
living hell and I don't even get
a fence between myself and them.

1471
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:49,800
Well, you know, all right, I'm, 
I'm, I've done pretty well not 

1472
01:23:49,800 --> 01:23:53,120
to mention it so far, but 
there's a scene earlier on where

1473
01:23:53,120 --> 01:23:56,640
they talk to talk to Kendrick 
and he's like, you've got a 

1474
01:23:56,640 --> 01:23:59,280
problem with Kendrick and he's 
like, no, I like you Navy boys 

1475
01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:01,600
just fine. 
Every time we need to go 

1476
01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:03,880
somewhere to fight, you guys 
always give us a ride. 

1477
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:07,520
I'm like, hey, first, first of 
all, Sonia, you're correct. 

1478
01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:09,680
Fuck him. 
Because his branch of the 

1479
01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:12,120
military wasn't involved in the 
in the in the largest amphibious

1480
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:13,960
operation ever to have taken 
place, Operation Overlord, 

1481
01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:21,280
whereas mine was and and one 
second mine actually. 

1482
01:24:23,240 --> 01:24:26,280
Yeah, we will. 
Doing so much. 

1483
01:24:29,520 --> 01:24:32,640
This movie could be improved by 
the introduction of Lieutenant 

1484
01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:36,760
Commander Royal Navy Mike Dunbar
entering the scene every time 

1485
01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:39,480
Besop opens his mouth and saying
cheers dids. 

1486
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:43,240
Yeah, just did. 
All right, okay. 

1487
01:24:43,440 --> 01:24:44,480
All right, Matt. 
Right. 

1488
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:45,600
Let's do it. 
No, let's do it. 

1489
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:47,880
Let's do it right. 
There's something about we've 

1490
01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:49,760
been nibbling the edges of it 
for a while now. 

1491
01:24:49,880 --> 01:24:52,840
Let's just get it all out there 
that the way they talk about how

1492
01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:56,040
important they are, they're 
fucking Gitmo is ridiculous. 

1493
01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:58,760
They're talking as if they're 
there's a hot war going on 

1494
01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:01,280
between Cuba and America. 
There's not right. 

1495
01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:06,880
Like it's ridiculous. 
You want to put, you want to put

1496
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:09,280
a jacket on if you like a 
camouflage jacket. 

1497
01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,080
If they see an officer, they 
might think the Cubans. 

1498
01:25:11,080 --> 01:25:12,680
I think it's someone they want 
to take a shot at. 

1499
01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:16,200
Yeah, they they might if they if
they don't care about being 

1500
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:20,200
naked off the face of the earth 
by the world's largest military.

1501
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:24,080
It's just bigger than the next 
25 militaries down as well 

1502
01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:26,880
combined. 
Like, what a fucking stupid 

1503
01:25:26,880 --> 01:25:29,640
thing to say. 
No, no, I think, I think being I

1504
01:25:29,640 --> 01:25:33,280
think being a Cuban soldier on 
opposite Contana base, one of 

1505
01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:36,160
the safest place to go because 
no one's going to start shit 

1506
01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:36,840
there. 
Yeah. 

1507
01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:40,320
Ridiculous. 
I am betting you like I, I don't

1508
01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:43,360
know, you guys probably remember
like what, what milt Twitter was

1509
01:25:43,360 --> 01:25:47,720
like 4 to five years ago. 
And I am fucking certain that 

1510
01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:51,960
the rest of the Marine Corps 
would constantly, constantly be 

1511
01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:53,840
like Cuba is not a real 
deployment. 

1512
01:25:55,120 --> 01:25:59,160
Yeah. 
It's like the same as Japan is 

1513
01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:01,120
not a real deployment. 
South Korea is not a real 

1514
01:26:01,120 --> 01:26:03,360
deployment because because all 
they do is sit around behind a 

1515
01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:04,800
fence and eat chicken or 
something. 

1516
01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:08,920
Right, so. 
Mean at least there's actually 

1517
01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:13,360
been exchanges of gunfire on the
the allegedly demarcation 

1518
01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:15,520
between between North and South 
Korea. 

1519
01:26:16,440 --> 01:26:18,320
There was like the axe murder 
incident when North Korean 

1520
01:26:18,320 --> 01:26:20,240
troops killed some American 
troops, admittedly back in the 

1521
01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:22,560
60s, I think. 
But I don't think there's been 

1522
01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:26,360
any actual, actual violence 
between the the Americans and 

1523
01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:29,720
the Cubans. 
And fucking Chuck Nicholson's 

1524
01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:31,760
scatting those Cuban cigars 
somehow. 

1525
01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:35,400
So there's clearly some kind of.
There is is distinctly more 

1526
01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:39,600
violence between United States 
Marines and elderly Japanese 

1527
01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:41,960
men. 
For some reason they keep 

1528
01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:44,760
beating them up randomly. 
I came across an article about 

1529
01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:50,680
not like half a year ago. 
I don't know why there's more 

1530
01:26:50,680 --> 01:26:54,240
going on everywhere else rather 
than than wherever the hell 

1531
01:26:54,240 --> 01:26:56,240
Colonel Jessup is. 
Ridiculous. 

1532
01:26:56,240 --> 01:26:58,640
I hate that guy. 
Yeah, like, like I said, I guess

1533
01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:04,000
you're like big, big, big Cyprus
op Shader, like Akateri, Akateri

1534
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:06,000
vibes. 
People go on about you get like 

1535
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:09,560
guys in the RAF who get like op 
shader medals and stuff for, for

1536
01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,840
like working in the rear echelon
Akateri in Cyprus. 

1537
01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:16,200
And I, I used to be before I got
married, I was seeing somebody 

1538
01:27:16,200 --> 01:27:21,440
who was in the RAF and, and I 
was deployed in the Falkland 

1539
01:27:21,440 --> 01:27:24,000
Islands on, on HMS Clyde at the 
time. 

1540
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:27,640
It's like 10 years ago, I was on
HMS Clyde at the time and we, I 

1541
01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:31,520
remember having to go to the 
little shop in, in, in RF Mount 

1542
01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:36,960
Pleasant and, and spending a 
tenner on a little 100 megabyte 

1543
01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:40,600
Wi-Fi card so I could have like 
a, a WhatsApp phone call with 

1544
01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:41,840
her. 
And she spent the entire time 

1545
01:27:41,840 --> 01:27:46,280
complaining at the, the beach 
club, the beach club, the beach 

1546
01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:48,000
club at RF Akitiri was out of 
action. 

1547
01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:50,680
So she just had a sunbathe 
outside instead. 

1548
01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:58,040
And I was like, yeah, OK, I'm on
the arse end of the planet. 

1549
01:27:58,720 --> 01:28:02,400
Like, like the the only the only
shipping I've seen since I've 

1550
01:28:02,400 --> 01:28:04,200
been down here is one Russian 
AGI. 

1551
01:28:06,280 --> 01:28:09,360
What is going on? 
Yeah, yeah, it's crazy. 

1552
01:28:09,360 --> 01:28:10,760
Yeah. 
Bad tool. 

1553
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:13,280
Oh, bad. 
Yeah, it takes it back, though. 

1554
01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:17,280
Good times. 
Really good so bad times to me 

1555
01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:20,400
back. 
Shall we take a break and we'll 

1556
01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:21,880
come back and do some 
categories? 

1557
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:23,880
Yep. 
Colonel, what's going on? 

1558
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:27,320
I did my job. 
I do it again to get on a plate 

1559
01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:30,680
and go on back to my base. 
I'm not going anywhere. 

1560
01:28:30,680 --> 01:28:37,840
Colonel MPs guard the Colonel. 
Captain Ross. 

1561
01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:44,280
What the hell is this? 
I'm being charged with a crime. 

1562
01:28:44,440 --> 01:28:46,200
Trial by court martial. 
Is that what this is? 

1563
01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:59,840
I'm being charged with a crime. 
Rob Marie, Colonel. 

1564
01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:01,720
Jessamine, do you understand 
these? 

1565
01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:14,400
Rights as I spread them to you. 
You have no idea how to defend 

1566
01:29:14,640 --> 01:29:17,320
the issue. 
What you did was weak in a 

1567
01:29:17,320 --> 01:29:20,200
country. 
That's all you did. 

1568
01:29:20,600 --> 01:29:24,080
Quotes of the movie. 
Have you ever got any favourite 

1569
01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:25,840
quotes? 
I've I've got a few, but I'll 

1570
01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:30,440
let you guys go first. 
So many Sonia, do you want to 

1571
01:29:30,440 --> 01:29:32,560
jump in with with the with the 
quotes on Me too. 

1572
01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:37,280
I have one that I would like to 
apply to someone right now, 

1573
01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:40,600
which is you are like 7 of the 
strangest women I've ever met. 

1574
01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:44,560
That's good. 
I like, I like it when they're 

1575
01:29:44,560 --> 01:29:49,280
in the former captain's office 
of Captain W, he says. 

1576
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:51,400
Commander Galloway, why don't 
you go get yourself a cup of. 

1577
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:52,800
Coffee. 
Talk about you behind your back.

1578
01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:55,240
Yeah, I love that. 
That's good. 

1579
01:29:55,520 --> 01:30:00,040
I'm on the IMDb quotes page. 
Most of the Jessup Cafe back and

1580
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:03,680
forth is on here. 
Yeah, which I mean, it is very, 

1581
01:30:03,680 --> 01:30:07,240
very good, but we can't quote 
all of that. 

1582
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:11,080
I love just a little one liner. 
Maybe if we work at it, we can 

1583
01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:13,760
get Dawson charged with the 
Kennedy assassination. 

1584
01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:15,520
I. 
Love that. 

1585
01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:19,040
That's an incredibly soaking 
line. 

1586
01:30:20,160 --> 01:30:22,960
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Well, right back to the subject 

1587
01:30:22,960 --> 01:30:24,280
of Colon Jester being full of 
shit. 

1588
01:30:24,760 --> 01:30:26,640
Like, like, like the way he 
talks here. 

1589
01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:30,840
You see, Danny, I can deal with 
the bullets and the bombs and 

1590
01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:33,160
the blood. 
I don't want money and I don't 

1591
01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:35,160
want medals. 
What I do want for you is to 

1592
01:30:35,160 --> 01:30:38,680
stand there in that white 
uniform with your Harvard mouth 

1593
01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:40,560
and extend me some fucking 
courtesy. 

1594
01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:44,840
Your Harvard mouth me nicely. 
I think your Harvard mouth, I 

1595
01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:47,120
thought it was a gay mouth thing
you were saying. 

1596
01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:50,680
But tell your Harvard mouth. 
I can deal with the bullets and 

1597
01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:53,720
the bombs and the blood or 
fucking pull everyone. 

1598
01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:58,320
Like. 
We've all done stuff. 

1599
01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:00,520
We've all done stuff, mate. 
Some of the fuck down. 

1600
01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:04,720
You know what he's like. 
He's like, he's like, what the 

1601
01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:07,640
fuck did you just fucking think 
about me, you little bitch? 

1602
01:31:08,160 --> 01:31:10,840
I'll have you know I graduated 
top of my class in the Navy 

1603
01:31:10,840 --> 01:31:14,280
Seals and I've been involved in 
numerous secret vegans, Al 

1604
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:17,520
Qaeda, and I have over 300 
confirmed kills. 

1605
01:31:18,200 --> 01:31:21,160
I am training guerrilla warfare 
and the top sniper in the entire

1606
01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:24,480
US armed forces. 
Nothing to me but just another 

1607
01:31:24,480 --> 01:31:26,840
target. 
I wipe you the fuck out with 

1608
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:31,680
precision the likes of witches 
that I've been seen before the 

1609
01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:33,120
surf. 
Mark my fucking words. 

1610
01:31:33,120 --> 01:31:35,200
You think you can get away with 
saying that shit to be of the 

1611
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:36,920
Internet? 
Think again fucker. 

1612
01:31:36,920 --> 01:31:40,880
As we speak, I'm contacting by 
secret network is across the USA

1613
01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:44,320
when your IP is being traced 
right now so you better prepare 

1614
01:31:44,320 --> 01:31:47,040
for the storm, maggot. 
The storm the wipes out of the 

1615
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:49,160
pathetical thing you call your 
life. 

1616
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:52,280
You're fucking dead, kid. 
I could be anywhere, anytime. 

1617
01:31:52,280 --> 01:31:55,680
I kill you over 700 ways and 
that's just my bare hands. 

1618
01:31:56,200 --> 01:31:59,000
Not only am I extensively 
trained in unarmed combat, but I

1619
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:01,760
have access to the entire 
arsenal of the United States 

1620
01:32:01,760 --> 01:32:05,160
Marine Corps and I don't have to
finish the Navy SEAL Copy pastor

1621
01:32:05,160 --> 01:32:08,640
there because that is from 
Colonel Jessup's autobiography, 

1622
01:32:11,120 --> 01:32:14,640
Very, very, very carved and it 
was cell wall in Leavenworth. 

1623
01:32:18,400 --> 01:32:22,200
Weinberg and Kathy meet in 
Galloway for the first time. 

1624
01:32:22,920 --> 01:32:24,600
Come out of Galloway. 
Lieutenant Kathy is considered 

1625
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:26,080
to be the best litigator in our 
office. 

1626
01:32:26,360 --> 01:32:28,960
Successfully plea bargain. 44 
cases in nine months. 

1627
01:32:29,320 --> 01:32:30,840
One more and I get a set of 
stick knives. 

1628
01:32:31,600 --> 01:32:33,440
Love that. 
And then and then that comes 

1629
01:32:33,440 --> 01:32:35,920
back later on where she's like 
where he's about to leave and 

1630
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,640
she after you said he's 
drinking, crash out and she 

1631
01:32:38,640 --> 01:32:40,760
goes, sorry, I cast you a set of
steak knives. 

1632
01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:42,480
That was good. 
Yeah. 

1633
01:32:42,840 --> 01:32:45,840
There was some crash outs in 
this film, actually. 

1634
01:32:47,080 --> 01:32:48,840
Yeah. 
Just to kind of really quickly 

1635
01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:51,920
mention something about the 
relationship between between 

1636
01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:54,840
Coffee and Demi Moore's 
character, the name which 

1637
01:32:54,840 --> 01:32:57,040
escapes me. 
Joanne Galloway. 

1638
01:32:57,080 --> 01:33:02,880
Galloway, Thank you. 
So my wife watched the first 

1639
01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:05,360
like maybe 10 minutes of the 
film with me before she went 

1640
01:33:05,360 --> 01:33:08,680
upstairs to her lair when she 
would just not Nash when she 

1641
01:33:08,680 --> 01:33:09,920
just lie down. 
She was tired. 

1642
01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:13,840
She didn't return to some weird,
strange lair that's full of 

1643
01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:15,440
horded beasts and stuff. 
But. 

1644
01:33:16,040 --> 01:33:20,480
But yeah, but like before, 
before she left, she was like, 

1645
01:33:21,280 --> 01:33:23,120
oh, well, they're obviously 
going to fall in love because 

1646
01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:26,000
it's a 90s film and there's no 
romantic supply. 

1647
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:28,640
And that's meant I think that's.
That's great. 

1648
01:33:28,760 --> 01:33:31,840
And and that's a good, that's a 
good Sorkinism, right? 

1649
01:33:31,840 --> 01:33:36,000
So, so Sorkin is pretty good at 
dangling, but not not fulfilling

1650
01:33:36,120 --> 01:33:37,600
a romantic subplot in 
characters. 

1651
01:33:37,840 --> 01:33:43,080
They I've been watching the The 
West Wing again and they kind of

1652
01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:47,280
eventually, eventually, like 6-5
or six seasons in, they kind of 

1653
01:33:47,280 --> 01:33:51,080
start doing it. 
But for like ages, years and 

1654
01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:54,240
upon years, you've got this kind
of like really good close 

1655
01:33:54,240 --> 01:33:58,640
working relationship between 
Josh Lyman, the deputy White 

1656
01:33:58,640 --> 01:34:01,840
House chief of staff, and his 
and his assistant Don Salamos. 

1657
01:34:02,240 --> 01:34:05,960
And like a lesser show would 
have made that like a will. 

1658
01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:08,480
They won't they thing like 
straight away and just had it 

1659
01:34:08,480 --> 01:34:10,480
going the entire time. 
But this doesn't do it. 

1660
01:34:11,160 --> 01:34:14,520
There's just like 2 
professionals who who are 

1661
01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:18,080
slightly, slightly beyond the 
edge of like the things like 

1662
01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:21,400
work life and work husband, but 
but they keep it professional. 

1663
01:34:21,400 --> 01:34:24,280
Yeah, that's that's good. 
Another good, another good quote

1664
01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:26,560
from the crash out, Kathy to 
Joe. 

1665
01:34:26,560 --> 01:34:29,480
Oh, I'm sorry. 
I keep forgetting you were sick 

1666
01:34:29,480 --> 01:34:30,960
the day they taught law at law 
school. 

1667
01:34:32,640 --> 01:34:36,000
That that was that was bars. 
That was like, hold up. 

1668
01:34:36,320 --> 01:34:40,000
His writing is indeed this fire 
that was like sick the day of 

1669
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:42,400
the talk. 
There's a few bits though where 

1670
01:34:42,400 --> 01:34:47,560
you hear like the the Aaron 
Sorkin tempo and Tombra, like 

1671
01:34:47,560 --> 01:34:50,240
the the rhythm of the stuff. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1672
01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:52,160
He has a very interesting way of
writing. 

1673
01:34:52,400 --> 01:34:55,120
And I mentioned it earlier on, 
you know, there's a bit where 

1674
01:34:55,440 --> 01:34:59,520
Galloway is having a go at a 
cafe when she first meets them 

1675
01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:04,200
and she says I don't like your 
fast food, slick ass Persian 

1676
01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:06,360
bazaar, blah, blah, blah, blah 
side of law. 

1677
01:35:06,360 --> 01:35:10,840
There's a similar thing that 
Lieutenant Weinberg does when 

1678
01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:13,760
he's having the the discussion 
with Galloway about why she why 

1679
01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:16,760
he doesn't like the defendants 
because of what they did. 

1680
01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:19,720
She's like, why don't you hit? 
Why you hit him so much? 

1681
01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:21,240
She goes, they beat up on a 
winkling. 

1682
01:35:21,320 --> 01:35:23,640
That's all they did. 
The rest is just smoke fills 

1683
01:35:23,640 --> 01:35:25,880
coffeehouse crap. 
They tortured him to matter. 

1684
01:35:25,880 --> 01:35:27,160
A weaker kid. 
They didn't like him, so they 

1685
01:35:27,160 --> 01:35:28,160
killed him. 
And why? 

1686
01:35:28,160 --> 01:35:29,520
Because he couldn't run very 
fast. 

1687
01:35:29,680 --> 01:35:31,320
But the smoke fills coffeehouse 
crap. 

1688
01:35:31,520 --> 01:35:35,680
Like little things like that, 
bits they all like. 

1689
01:35:35,680 --> 01:35:38,160
You can picture that when he 
says when he's like The West 

1690
01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:41,720
Wing and like The Newsroom. 
It was all like stuff like that,

1691
01:35:41,760 --> 01:35:44,560
like lots of little bars. 
Yeah. 

1692
01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:47,680
He's a big fan of rhythm and and
Tambra when he's when he's, when

1693
01:35:47,680 --> 01:35:51,320
he's putting his lines together.
I really, I really enjoyed just 

1694
01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:55,680
the, the this fucking heat is 
making me absolutely crazy lying

1695
01:35:55,680 --> 01:35:58,960
again from Colonel Jessup, like 
because again, it's just him 

1696
01:35:59,360 --> 01:36:04,080
trying to build this reputation 
as this crazy guy who's on the 

1697
01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:06,280
edge. 
It's like, no, you, you 

1698
01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:09,480
literally live here. 
You are probably quite 

1699
01:36:09,560 --> 01:36:14,720
acclimatised by this point to 
the heat, you know, Knock it 

1700
01:36:14,720 --> 01:36:16,120
off. 
You know what he should do? 

1701
01:36:16,120 --> 01:36:18,600
A fucking tour of duty in 
Ashington, right? 

1702
01:36:18,600 --> 01:36:22,280
Him and his boys should March up
Station Road, you know. 

1703
01:36:22,480 --> 01:36:25,560
They'll get accosted by Mickey T
you'll roll up on his little 

1704
01:36:25,560 --> 01:36:28,400
wheelchair, he'll try and sell 
them some used vapes, you'll 

1705
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:30,800
demand a kebab off them. 
They won't know what to do. 

1706
01:36:32,680 --> 01:36:40,000
Yeah, sorry. 
What we haven't talked about 

1707
01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:43,880
really is the the relationship 
between Dawson, Lance Corporal 

1708
01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:49,720
Dawson and Kathy. 
One of the sort of deep plots of

1709
01:36:49,720 --> 01:36:53,120
the movie is that those guys are
lawyer heads at the beginning. 

1710
01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:56,440
Dawson fundamentally doesn't 
respect Kathy. 

1711
01:36:57,040 --> 01:37:01,040
Dawson obviously takes his 
career in the US Marines 

1712
01:37:01,200 --> 01:37:04,000
incredibly seriously. 
What, what, what is it? 

1713
01:37:04,000 --> 01:37:07,600
It's it's unit core gods country
or something like that, isn't 

1714
01:37:07,600 --> 01:37:09,240
it? 
That's the order unit core God 

1715
01:37:09,240 --> 01:37:12,480
country. 
So for him, his entire identity 

1716
01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:18,040
is, is consumed by being AUS 
Marine, which is understandable,

1717
01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:21,600
by the way. 
Like I remember when I first 

1718
01:37:21,600 --> 01:37:24,240
joined the Navy, like 11 going 
on 12 years ago. 

1719
01:37:24,240 --> 01:37:27,560
I remember being hungry for it. 
You know, I did my basic 

1720
01:37:27,560 --> 01:37:31,640
training as a rating got 
transferred, came an officer did

1721
01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:34,560
like, you know, the nine months 
of initial officer training that

1722
01:37:34,560 --> 01:37:37,680
entire time you're like on this,
you know, your your identity 

1723
01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:40,520
gets essentially kind of reset 
almost. 

1724
01:37:40,840 --> 01:37:44,240
You know, you you were this one 
person before you came in and 

1725
01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:47,000
like a couple years later, you 
are fundamentally this different

1726
01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:47,920
person. 
I understand. 

1727
01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:52,560
So I understand where like 
Dawson is, he's he's obviously 

1728
01:37:52,560 --> 01:37:55,080
making a career of British Lance
Corporal, relatively junior 

1729
01:37:55,360 --> 01:37:57,160
making a career of it. 
But you can see that he's been 

1730
01:37:57,160 --> 01:37:59,280
embraced by the corps and he's 
he's embraced it. 

1731
01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:03,600
So the fact that he sees someone
like Cathy, who's left-handed, 

1732
01:38:03,600 --> 01:38:06,400
who's been for nine months, has 
got the military bearing of a, 

1733
01:38:06,560 --> 01:38:10,480
of a smashed in biscuit tin, 
like it's the military bearing 

1734
01:38:10,480 --> 01:38:13,320
of my cat. 
Like, you know, like, like, 

1735
01:38:13,480 --> 01:38:15,080
yeah, I get it. 
He doesn't respect this guy 

1736
01:38:15,080 --> 01:38:21,000
because he's a silly and a 
uniform like 100% and like one 

1737
01:38:21,000 --> 01:38:23,120
of the one of the background 
plots, it happens. 

1738
01:38:23,120 --> 01:38:26,760
It happens only in like 3 beats 
that are spread out about 45 

1739
01:38:26,760 --> 01:38:32,120
minutes apart each. 
Eventually you get like Dawson 

1740
01:38:32,680 --> 01:38:37,640
learning to respect Kathy for 
for what he is, which is not an 

1741
01:38:37,640 --> 01:38:41,840
amazing naval operator, but he's
a trial lawyer, a litigator and 

1742
01:38:41,840 --> 01:38:44,000
he respects him for that. 
The skilly, the skill and the 

1743
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:45,800
dedication and the hard work, 
he's shown doing that. 

1744
01:38:47,240 --> 01:38:52,080
And then at the end of the case,
of course, Dawson and Downey are

1745
01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:56,640
not guilty of the murders, but 
they are guilty of misconduct 

1746
01:38:56,680 --> 01:39:00,120
and are, you know, removed from 
the service. 

1747
01:39:01,400 --> 01:39:05,000
And at first, I think it's 
Downey who's saying, like, what 

1748
01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:06,440
did we do wrong? 
We followed the order. 

1749
01:39:06,440 --> 01:39:09,240
What did we do wrong? 
It's like we weren't supposed to

1750
01:39:09,720 --> 01:39:11,560
follow the order. 
We were supposed to protect 

1751
01:39:12,160 --> 01:39:15,120
Private Sentia, was supposed to 
protect Willie and look after 

1752
01:39:15,120 --> 01:39:18,120
him like that's the core value 
that you didn't do that you 

1753
01:39:18,120 --> 01:39:23,080
should have done. 
And it's only when Kathy says to

1754
01:39:23,080 --> 01:39:25,160
him you don't need to have a 
badge on your arm to have on it.

1755
01:39:25,360 --> 01:39:29,560
Yeah, it's when he goes like 
turn and it does that does does 

1756
01:39:29,560 --> 01:39:32,560
the there's an officer on deck. 
It does the awful like both of 

1757
01:39:32,560 --> 01:39:34,200
them indoors. 
And the headgear salute would 

1758
01:39:34,200 --> 01:39:39,280
never happen in a million years,
but but they did it to make a 

1759
01:39:39,280 --> 01:39:41,600
point, right? 
And it rhymes with the the 

1760
01:39:41,600 --> 01:39:43,440
previous scene where it doesn't 
salute even again. 

1761
01:39:43,480 --> 01:39:44,520
They were both in torso 
headgear. 

1762
01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:49,640
Anyway, it's not the same thing.
And I I checked it's not the 

1763
01:39:49,640 --> 01:39:51,640
same thing in America either. 
Yeah. 

1764
01:39:51,640 --> 01:39:54,720
So anyway, we all went. 
Through it did the fuck out of 

1765
01:39:54,720 --> 01:39:58,960
Colin in Flensburg with that. 
Yeah, it was. 

1766
01:40:02,480 --> 01:40:06,120
There's an officer on deck. 
Yeah, Final quote. 

1767
01:40:07,160 --> 01:40:09,000
To move this thing along a bit, 
it's got to be. 

1768
01:40:09,000 --> 01:40:11,840
It's got to be the big. 
I mean, we know what the court's

1769
01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:14,680
going to be, right? 
You know, I want the truth. 

1770
01:40:15,160 --> 01:40:19,840
You can handle the truth, son. 
We live in a world that has 

1771
01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:23,120
walls, and those walls have to 
be guarded by a man with guns. 

1772
01:40:23,360 --> 01:40:24,440
Who's going to do it? 
You. 

1773
01:40:24,480 --> 01:40:28,160
You, Lieutenant Weinberg, either
greater responsibility then you 

1774
01:40:28,160 --> 01:40:30,800
could possibly fathom. 
You beat the Santiago and you 

1775
01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:32,600
curse the Marines. 
You have that luxury. 

1776
01:40:32,600 --> 01:40:34,720
You have the luxury of not 
knowing what I know. 

1777
01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:38,480
That Santiago's death, while 
tragic, probably saved lives. 

1778
01:40:38,680 --> 01:40:41,400
And my existence, while 
grotesque and incomprehensible 

1779
01:40:41,400 --> 01:40:44,800
to you, saves lives. 
You don't want the truth because

1780
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:48,000
deep down, in places you don't 
talk about at parties, you want 

1781
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:50,440
me on that wall. 
You need me on that wall. 

1782
01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:54,480
We use words like honour, cold, 
loyalty. 

1783
01:40:55,080 --> 01:40:58,280
We use these words as a backbone
of a life spent defending 

1784
01:40:58,280 --> 01:41:00,840
something. 
You use them as a punchline. 

1785
01:41:01,160 --> 01:41:04,040
I have neither the time of the 
inclination to explain myself to

1786
01:41:04,040 --> 01:41:07,440
a man who rises and sleeps under
the blanket of the very freedom 

1787
01:41:07,440 --> 01:41:09,880
that I provide and then 
questions the manner in which I 

1788
01:41:09,880 --> 01:41:12,280
provided. 
I would rather you just said 

1789
01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:16,040
thank you and went on your way. 
Otherwise I suggest you pick up 

1790
01:41:16,040 --> 01:41:19,680
a weapon and stand a post. 
Either way, I don't give a damn 

1791
01:41:19,680 --> 01:41:21,440
what you think you're entitled 
to. 

1792
01:41:22,280 --> 01:41:23,960
Did you order the cold red 
Jakarta? 

1793
01:41:25,480 --> 01:41:26,200
Yeah. 
OK, be man. 

1794
01:41:31,440 --> 01:41:35,480
The speech is making it up like 
like Jessup Thing sees the guy 

1795
01:41:35,680 --> 01:41:38,640
in the trolley problem pulling 
the lever. 

1796
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:40,360
He. 
Got it. 

1797
01:41:40,480 --> 01:41:42,240
Totally, yes. 
He's actually the guy who put 

1798
01:41:42,240 --> 01:41:48,240
the people on the tracks. 
Spot on. 

1799
01:41:49,440 --> 01:41:52,040
Colonel Jessop has killed more 
Americans than Cubans in this. 

1800
01:41:52,120 --> 01:42:00,600
Movie Listen, this one guy was 
fucking bad at running and if I 

1801
01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:04,200
didn't execute him, who knows 
how many other people could have

1802
01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:06,320
been killed. 
Could have been killed. 

1803
01:42:08,560 --> 01:42:11,600
Jesus, you know what a guy whose
job is to stand on a wall to be 

1804
01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:16,320
bad at running? 
You absolute half that fucking 

1805
01:42:17,120 --> 01:42:20,320
waste. 
This guy wasn't at 105% fucking 

1806
01:42:20,320 --> 01:42:22,320
physical fitness. 
Do you know how many other 

1807
01:42:22,320 --> 01:42:25,720
people might have been killed if
this man didn't drown in his own

1808
01:42:25,720 --> 01:42:28,920
blood? 
This one guy they call the 

1809
01:42:28,920 --> 01:42:31,360
pickup private because his job 
is to drive the Jeep. 

1810
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:33,920
Give that to him. 
Yeah, yeah. 

1811
01:42:34,120 --> 01:42:36,560
It's like, look, now you'll pick
up private. 

1812
01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:39,440
I know the last one also had the
ability to get girls to come 

1813
01:42:39,440 --> 01:42:41,120
off. 
I only learn that skill too, but

1814
01:42:41,120 --> 01:42:43,680
just drive the cheap pick people
up. 

1815
01:42:43,680 --> 01:42:45,840
You know, it's it's it's it's 
wild to me. 

1816
01:42:45,840 --> 01:42:48,800
It's it's crazy. 
I mean, obviously I got second. 

1817
01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:52,320
I mean it all like just kind of 
like this. 

1818
01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:55,560
Once again, it's just like 
feeding a dress of soul. 

1819
01:42:55,720 --> 01:42:59,120
I I I am the entirety of the US 
military. 

1820
01:42:59,160 --> 01:43:03,840
I I am I made the BBC. 
I. 

1821
01:43:06,800 --> 01:43:12,080
Made. 
It every sellers I made it 

1822
01:43:13,280 --> 01:43:15,840
bloody hell hot. 
You did nothing but make a 

1823
01:43:15,840 --> 01:43:18,360
country weaker today. 
Yeah. 

1824
01:43:18,920 --> 01:43:20,520
All right. 
I believe you. 

1825
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:24,040
Needle drops. 
There is one decent needle drop 

1826
01:43:24,040 --> 01:43:27,280
in this movie, Hound Dog,

1827
01:43:27,280 --> 01:43:29,440
Stoller. 
Yeah, not the others Presley 

1828
01:43:29,440 --> 01:43:30,880
version or the Big Mama 
Thornton. 

1829
01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:32,160
Yeah, I know. 
It's that awesome. 

1830
01:43:32,280 --> 01:43:36,840
Hell yeah, dude. 
Really good yeah, awesome next 

1831
01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:39,840
category IMDb trivia. 
We've covered some of it. 

1832
01:43:39,920 --> 01:43:42,680
I'll I'll do some more though. 
Tom Cruise's Jack Nicholson 

1833
01:43:42,680 --> 01:43:45,160
impression when the characters 
are quoting Colonel Jessup was 

1834
01:43:45,160 --> 01:43:47,400
not scripted. 
Demi Moore and Kevin Pollock's 

1835
01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:50,720
reactions were genuine. 
It's a lazy That's not the most 

1836
01:43:50,720 --> 01:43:53,480
interesting fact to begin with, 
but the I mentioned it earlier 

1837
01:43:53,480 --> 01:43:56,040
on, the original play was 
inspired by an actual Code Red 

1838
01:43:56,440 --> 01:44:00,160
Guantanamo Bay. 
Lance Corporal David Cox and 

1839
01:44:00,160 --> 01:44:03,960
nine other enlisted men turned 
up a fellow Marine and severely 

1840
01:44:03,960 --> 01:44:06,800
beat him for stitching to the 
Naval Criminal Investigative 

1841
01:44:06,800 --> 01:44:08,720
Service. 
Cox was acquitted and then they 

1842
01:44:08,720 --> 01:44:13,000
honourably discharged in 1994. 
David Cox mysteriously vanished 

1843
01:44:13,200 --> 01:44:16,920
and his bullet ridden body was 
found three months later. 

1844
01:44:17,120 --> 01:44:22,000
His murder remains unsolved. 
But the that's that's from IMDb,

1845
01:44:22,000 --> 01:44:24,280
but I've got some extra detail 
on that as well. 

1846
01:44:24,280 --> 01:44:31,040
So the the case itself was based
on a real incident. 

1847
01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:34,880
Aaron, Aaron Sorkin's sister 
who's a Navy Jag lawyer or was 

1848
01:44:34,880 --> 01:44:38,440
at the time talking about hazing
gone wrong involving a code red 

1849
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:41,520
from a superior had the name of 
the guy. 

1850
01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:45,640
Pfc William Alvarado was the 
basis for Santiago. 

1851
01:44:45,880 --> 01:44:50,520
He survived and didn't die and 
the and the other Marines were 

1852
01:44:50,520 --> 01:44:52,640
court martialed, obviously not 
convicted of murder. 

1853
01:44:52,640 --> 01:44:55,800
So they they've upped the stakes
by having him die during the 

1854
01:44:55,800 --> 01:44:59,720
hazing to make it obviously like
a meaty case for a movie and or 

1855
01:44:59,840 --> 01:45:05,160
Broadway play. 
Got a goof that I noticed last 

1856
01:45:05,160 --> 01:45:11,040
night. 
So the dialogue after after 

1857
01:45:11,440 --> 01:45:19,520
Martinson kills himself and 
Kathy said he put a 45 calibre 

1858
01:45:19,520 --> 01:45:22,800
gun in his mouth or whatever, 
but that's a Beretta M9. 

1859
01:45:22,800 --> 01:45:26,600
It's a 92, just a nine 
millimetre pistol. 

1860
01:45:26,600 --> 01:45:28,120
Yeah. 
So basically garbage film. 

1861
01:45:28,480 --> 01:45:30,960
Hated it. 
I wanted to shoot myself after 

1862
01:45:30,960 --> 01:45:33,160
watching it just because they 
got that one particular gun. 

1863
01:45:33,160 --> 01:45:36,400
Well. 
A good thing that you mentioned 

1864
01:45:36,400 --> 01:45:40,800
earlier on about the the lack of
a romantic subplot. 

1865
01:45:41,880 --> 01:45:45,240
So an unnamed executive gave 
Aaron Sorkin a note. 

1866
01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:47,520
If Tom Cruise and Demi Moore 
aren't going to sleep each 

1867
01:45:47,520 --> 01:45:49,240
other, why is Demi Moore a 
woman? 

1868
01:45:49,880 --> 01:45:51,000
Yeah. 
And he was, and he was. 

1869
01:45:51,120 --> 01:45:52,360
Yeah. 
And he responded. 

1870
01:45:52,880 --> 01:45:55,520
I said the obvious answer. 
Women have purposes other than 

1871
01:45:55,520 --> 01:45:59,200
to sleep with Tom Cruise. 
That's incredible. 

1872
01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:01,200
Yeah. 
Brilliant. 

1873
01:46:01,200 --> 01:46:04,040
I mean, I would argue, I mean, 
Tom Cruise doesn't really give. 

1874
01:46:04,240 --> 01:46:06,120
Right. 
On the subject of Tom Cruise. 

1875
01:46:06,120 --> 01:46:08,240
We've, we've kind of skirted 
around to the subject of of, of 

1876
01:46:08,240 --> 01:46:11,280
Tom for a while. 
One of the other things we we 

1877
01:46:11,280 --> 01:46:14,160
haven't talked about, and it's 
not about business really, but I

1878
01:46:14,160 --> 01:46:18,200
don't find him convincing with 
any of the female leads in a 

1879
01:46:18,200 --> 01:46:20,480
romantic subplot. 
I've never seen him in a movie 

1880
01:46:20,480 --> 01:46:23,320
where he has a romantic subplot 
with a woman where it's worked 

1881
01:46:23,320 --> 01:46:26,200
for me, with the one exception 
of being Eyes Wide Shut because 

1882
01:46:26,200 --> 01:46:29,320
he's married to Nicole Kidman 
and the whole plot of the movie 

1883
01:46:29,320 --> 01:46:30,960
hinged in the fact that they 
have a weird energy. 

1884
01:46:30,960 --> 01:46:35,680
Example, Edge of Tomorrow with 
Emily Blunt, don't buy it. 

1885
01:46:36,160 --> 01:46:38,040
And everyone loves that movie 
and I love that movie, but don't

1886
01:46:38,040 --> 01:46:39,640
buy that. 
Don't buy that romance. 

1887
01:46:40,960 --> 01:46:44,040
Oblivion with Olya, what's her 
name? 

1888
01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:48,760
Oh, can't remember. 
My name, my tongue. 

1889
01:46:48,760 --> 01:46:53,120
But yeah, I don't, I don't. 
I don't buy that one either, 

1890
01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:55,760
really. 
I don't know whether it's a 

1891
01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:56,920
blast or a curse. 
Kalenko. 

1892
01:46:58,080 --> 01:47:03,280
It's he's, he's blessed or 
cursed with the physical 

1893
01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:08,640
aesthetics of a sexy man, but 
incredibly sexless vibes, Yeah. 

1894
01:47:09,360 --> 01:47:13,080
Oh, topical Maverick with with 
John Mcconnelly. 

1895
01:47:13,080 --> 01:47:15,360
Yeah, and they have that. 
They have that sex scene which 

1896
01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:17,360
is just the two of them rolling 
on in a bed laughing at each 

1897
01:47:17,360 --> 01:47:20,640
other. 
That's that's what do you think 

1898
01:47:20,640 --> 01:47:23,160
sex is, man? 
That's so weird. 

1899
01:47:23,160 --> 01:47:26,480
It's just that like doing this, 
the whole bit like big big big 

1900
01:47:26,480 --> 01:47:29,440
toothy laugh face that he does 
on interviews and stuff. 

1901
01:47:29,440 --> 01:47:33,400
So what do you think sex is? 
That's that's it, man. 

1902
01:47:33,760 --> 01:47:36,040
Yeah, that's that's that's it to
him. 

1903
01:47:36,040 --> 01:47:37,680
So say lying in bed with a lady 
and laughing. 

1904
01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:42,680
Crazy. 
There's a couple of more goofs. 

1905
01:47:43,440 --> 01:47:45,320
So we mentioned already the 
Judge Advocate has the same 

1906
01:47:45,320 --> 01:47:47,000
qualified immunity as any of her
attorney. 

1907
01:47:47,200 --> 01:47:50,800
Or in your defence. 
So you wouldn't get court 

1908
01:47:50,800 --> 01:47:52,600
martials for asking a question 
of Jessup? 

1909
01:47:52,720 --> 01:47:56,600
Yeah, yeah, you, you. 
Maybe he would if he was found 

1910
01:47:56,600 --> 01:47:59,320
in contempt of the court and was
saying mental shit. 

1911
01:47:59,320 --> 01:48:02,360
But just doing a line of 
questioning shouldn't fill him 

1912
01:48:02,360 --> 01:48:05,720
with a fear regard. 
You know, when they bring in the

1913
01:48:05,720 --> 01:48:11,280
two US Air Force airmen in to 
spook Colonel Jessop because he 

1914
01:48:11,280 --> 01:48:13,960
thinks he's got a smoking gun 
with with the testimony of these

1915
01:48:13,960 --> 01:48:16,800
two guys. 
But actually he's brought them 

1916
01:48:16,800 --> 01:48:19,000
in a set dressing because he was
like, what were they going to 

1917
01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:20,160
say on the stand? 
Oh, that they had no 

1918
01:48:20,160 --> 01:48:24,920
recollection. 
You know, that wouldn't have 

1919
01:48:24,920 --> 01:48:27,640
worked in real life because 
witnesses like that don't just 

1920
01:48:27,640 --> 01:48:29,040
sit in the courtroom waiting to 
be called forward. 

1921
01:48:29,040 --> 01:48:31,560
They're kept in an ante room and
then brought in purely for their

1922
01:48:31,560 --> 01:48:33,040
testimony because they don't 
watch the rest of the trial 

1923
01:48:33,040 --> 01:48:36,440
happening. 
Yeah. 

1924
01:48:36,440 --> 01:48:38,080
What else has gone on? 
Salutes? 

1925
01:48:38,160 --> 01:48:38,960
Ridiculous. 
Yeah. 

1926
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:41,840
Because of that already people 
salute me like her gear indoors 

1927
01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:43,880
Mental. 
Would this movie have been 

1928
01:48:43,880 --> 01:48:49,400
better with Doctor Jack Ryan? 
Like, isn't Jessup supposed to 

1929
01:48:49,400 --> 01:48:53,400
become some sort of more 
important national security? 

1930
01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:59,760
Like, this could start as Ryan 
requesting some sort of 

1931
01:48:59,800 --> 01:49:02,200
investigation into what's going 
on. 

1932
01:49:04,680 --> 01:49:08,040
Like like this. 
We want this guy on our Security

1933
01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:11,840
Council, but there's like people
dying off at his command despite

1934
01:49:12,000 --> 01:49:15,360
him only being in Cuba. 
That's SUS. 

1935
01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:19,000
Look at that. 
You would, you know what it is. 

1936
01:49:19,000 --> 01:49:24,800
And in that case, he would 
totally dispatch Ding Travers to

1937
01:49:24,800 --> 01:49:28,800
investigate, wouldn't he? 
He would send Ding Travers and 

1938
01:49:28,800 --> 01:49:32,760
John Clark to to see just what 
the Hell's going on down there. 

1939
01:49:33,760 --> 01:49:34,920
Oh, this is a totally different 
movie. 

1940
01:49:34,920 --> 01:49:36,000
Totally different. 
Movie. 

1941
01:49:36,360 --> 01:49:38,560
Good movie, totally different 
one. 

1942
01:49:39,200 --> 01:49:43,280
To on the ground investigation 
into the cultures of yes of of 

1943
01:49:43,280 --> 01:49:45,200
the Code Red. 
That would be the movie. 

1944
01:49:45,280 --> 01:49:46,480
The movie would be called Code 
Red. 

1945
01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:48,200
Called Code Red and it would be 
sick. 

1946
01:49:48,560 --> 01:49:51,360
Tom Clancy's Code Red. 
Code Red. 

1947
01:49:52,520 --> 01:49:55,120
That would be absolutely sick. 
I want to watch that film when 

1948
01:49:55,120 --> 01:49:56,600
he would, he would need to write
that film. 

1949
01:49:57,280 --> 01:50:00,840
Sean Connery is the judge. 
Nice. 

1950
01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:05,160
I believe I have found that 
right. 

1951
01:50:07,440 --> 01:50:11,040
You watch yourself. 
As far as Doctor Richard Kimball

1952
01:50:11,040 --> 01:50:14,480
goes, he could have been a 
specialist witness for the 

1953
01:50:14,480 --> 01:50:17,560
defence. 
Specialist medical witness? 

1954
01:50:17,920 --> 01:50:22,280
Yeah, defence. 
Yeah, lactic acidosis. 

1955
01:50:23,200 --> 01:50:27,400
Yeah, all that stuff. 
Yeah, President James Marshall. 

1956
01:50:28,360 --> 01:50:31,200
This movie has an actor called 
James. 

1957
01:50:31,200 --> 01:50:33,520
Marshall I was like, holy shit, 
man. 

1958
01:50:34,560 --> 01:50:39,960
Yeah, but as President James 
Marshall, could you imagine 

1959
01:50:39,960 --> 01:50:44,600
President James Marshall in this
movie as the as the president? 

1960
01:50:44,600 --> 01:50:47,280
He's he's like, he storms, 
storms in at the end. 

1961
01:50:47,280 --> 01:50:49,600
He's like. 
Out of my courtroom. 

1962
01:50:50,720 --> 01:50:52,440
Big swinging Dick of the 
executive branch. 

1963
01:50:53,480 --> 01:50:55,760
Get off of my base, get out of 
my Marines. 

1964
01:50:56,240 --> 01:50:59,520
Get out of my core. 
Get out of my. 

1965
01:50:59,520 --> 01:51:01,800
Core. 
That sounds incredibly 

1966
01:51:01,800 --> 01:51:04,280
homoerosic. 
Sucking in blood out of. 

1967
01:51:04,520 --> 01:51:08,200
My Marines. 
Was like, oh, we're. 

1968
01:51:08,360 --> 01:51:15,320
Discussing the military break, 
It's not if it's underway. 

1969
01:51:15,320 --> 01:51:18,400
Energy over here. 
Jeffrey Wright could have been 

1970
01:51:18,560 --> 01:51:21,960
anybody in this movie. 
Jeffrey Wright could have been 

1971
01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:24,040
good on the Kevin Bacon rule. 
Yeah, definitely. 

1972
01:51:24,520 --> 01:51:27,400
As as a as you're not standard 
Marine, Yeah. 

1973
01:51:27,560 --> 01:51:30,640
Who's the thinking? 
The thinking man's Marine who 

1974
01:51:31,200 --> 01:51:33,200
still wears the green uniform 
but actually has something 

1975
01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:38,360
between his his ears. 
A freshly eaten crayon. 

1976
01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:43,800
He was since paying for that 
one. 

1977
01:51:49,160 --> 01:51:51,960
You should you should refer to 
them as Naval Interim 

1978
01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:56,760
Infantrymen just to piss off any
potential Marine listening and. 

1979
01:51:58,120 --> 01:52:00,640
His Majesty's jollies soldier, 
and a sailor too. 

1980
01:52:00,800 --> 01:52:02,840
Not my words, the words of rigid
Kipling. 

1981
01:52:07,040 --> 01:52:08,160
Oh. 
Shit. 

1982
01:52:11,000 --> 01:52:13,000
Oh shit, Rigid Kipling was crazy
for. 

1983
01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:17,240
That one yo. 
As frightening as this fire. 

1984
01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:21,840
Waggon, right? 
King Louie, It's all comes back.

1985
01:52:21,920 --> 01:52:23,400
Awesome spot, King Louie. 
Holy shit. 

1986
01:52:23,440 --> 01:52:27,360
Everything flows from from from 
Roger Kaplan, clearly. 

1987
01:52:28,480 --> 01:52:31,560
Oh, yeah. 
Oh, well, yeah, exactly. 

1988
01:52:31,560 --> 01:52:34,520
God, you may talk of gin and 
beer when you're quoted safe out

1989
01:52:34,520 --> 01:52:37,200
here in fucking Guantanamo Bay. 
Quoted safe out there. 

1990
01:52:37,200 --> 01:52:42,320
But when it comes to saucer, you
do your work on water and lick 

1991
01:52:42,320 --> 01:52:43,560
the blooming bits of him. 
That's got it. 

1992
01:52:44,040 --> 01:52:44,720
Yeah. 
All right. 

1993
01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:46,280
OK. 
Couldn't get in, everybody. 

1994
01:52:46,400 --> 01:52:51,360
Yeah, that's the Ding Chavez 
award for missed opportunity of 

1995
01:52:51,360 --> 01:52:53,240
the movie. 
Clearly the ghost of of Uzu 

1996
01:52:53,240 --> 01:52:54,560
Kipling appearing as a first 
ghost. 

1997
01:52:55,440 --> 01:53:03,040
But apart from that, God, I 
think this movie nails it 

1998
01:53:03,840 --> 01:53:07,640
largely the only thing right. 
So I, I get the impression that 

1999
01:53:07,640 --> 01:53:14,400
whilst this movie is loved by me
and plenty of people I know, I 

2000
01:53:14,400 --> 01:53:17,720
think Navy barristers every 
everybody in the military kind 

2001
01:53:17,720 --> 01:53:19,280
of likes it. 
I guess it's a good movie. 

2002
01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:23,360
What it doesn't do, I don't 
think very well. 

2003
01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:25,400
I kind of like it, but what it 
doesn't do, and maybe this is a 

2004
01:53:25,400 --> 01:53:28,120
good thing actually is it 
doesn't like have a counterpoint

2005
01:53:28,120 --> 01:53:32,280
for Nathan Jessup is like 
actually the military's actually

2006
01:53:32,280 --> 01:53:35,520
good. 
Actually, it kind of owns the 

2007
01:53:35,520 --> 01:53:39,760
problem and that like the most 
powerful guy is a fucking shit 

2008
01:53:39,760 --> 01:53:43,360
eel and the guy who got passed 
over Markinson has just killed 

2009
01:53:43,360 --> 01:53:47,040
himself in a motel room. 
The the, the, the system does 

2010
01:53:47,040 --> 01:53:51,520
not reward meritoriously. 
It's political Wheeling and 

2011
01:53:51,520 --> 01:53:54,400
dealing just like anywhere else.
There's a swamp that needs to be

2012
01:53:54,400 --> 01:53:58,200
drained, but there isn't like 
there's not like a good version 

2013
01:53:58,200 --> 01:54:00,440
of Jessup to to make us feel 
comfortable. 

2014
01:54:00,680 --> 01:54:04,680
You know, it's not like clear 
and present danger where like 

2015
01:54:04,680 --> 01:54:09,200
President Jack Ryan at the end, 
like like stands up to the 

2016
01:54:09,200 --> 01:54:11,240
president and is like, I don't 
dance. 

2017
01:54:11,240 --> 01:54:13,960
It's like it's the old so my 2 
step Jack and he's like, I don't

2018
01:54:13,960 --> 01:54:16,440
dance and then leaves. 
You know, it's like that. 

2019
01:54:17,640 --> 01:54:19,360
I don't know. 
Is that a missed opportunity? 

2020
01:54:19,360 --> 01:54:20,880
Actually, it's kind of a win. 
I'm not really sure. 

2021
01:54:21,400 --> 01:54:24,560
I think it is a win. 
While it's not a game changer 

2022
01:54:24,560 --> 01:54:28,200
and I don't think it would like 
kind of make the film much 

2023
01:54:28,200 --> 01:54:34,600
worse, much better just to have 
just a few seconds of the 

2024
01:54:34,600 --> 01:54:38,040
incident with the alleged or 
they were aiming at me. 

2025
01:54:38,040 --> 01:54:39,320
I was going to shoot a damn kind
of thing. 

2026
01:54:39,320 --> 01:54:41,280
We'll be interested in the stage
was how to work that into the 

2027
01:54:41,280 --> 01:54:45,880
film kind of thing because is it
those kind of pose more 

2028
01:54:45,880 --> 01:54:48,320
questions and stuff and it would
add a few more layers to it 

2029
01:54:48,320 --> 01:54:49,720
actually in the storyline and 
stuff. 

2030
01:54:49,720 --> 01:54:53,680
It's like I say, it's it's it's 
presence or absence isn't a game

2031
01:54:54,160 --> 01:54:56,200
breakout or change up. 
But still it will be 

2032
01:54:56,200 --> 01:54:58,560
interesting. 
Interesting, isn't it? 

2033
01:54:58,560 --> 01:55:00,680
So you got, like, shorts. 
You got a short scene at the 

2034
01:55:00,680 --> 01:55:02,880
beginning of the movie of the 
initial assaults, which results 

2035
01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:04,280
in Santiago's death, right? 
Yeah. 

2036
01:55:05,920 --> 01:55:08,400
There's a version of this movie 
where they did like, a bit of a 

2037
01:55:08,400 --> 01:55:11,040
Rashomon thing. 
And every and every time we see 

2038
01:55:11,040 --> 01:55:13,600
someone's testimony, we get a 
flashback to what their 

2039
01:55:13,720 --> 01:55:14,920
interpretation of the events 
were. 

2040
01:55:15,520 --> 01:55:18,600
And you got a whole and you got 
a whole like, oh, well, from 

2041
01:55:19,000 --> 01:55:21,360
this, from private Danny's 
perspective, this is what he 

2042
01:55:21,360 --> 01:55:22,480
saw. 
From daughter's perspective, 

2043
01:55:22,480 --> 01:55:25,160
this is what he heard. 
From Kendra's perspective, this 

2044
01:55:25,160 --> 01:55:26,720
is what he said and what they 
took it as. 

2045
01:55:27,120 --> 01:55:29,000
You know, there's, there's, 
there's none of that. 

2046
01:55:29,000 --> 01:55:31,280
There's just, it's all the 
courtroom. 

2047
01:55:31,600 --> 01:55:34,320
I like it for being all in the 
courtroom because it's all in 

2048
01:55:34,720 --> 01:55:37,560
your imagination and you are 
just there because I think it 

2049
01:55:37,560 --> 01:55:41,440
would distract from the 
compelling performances and and 

2050
01:55:41,440 --> 01:55:45,560
the intricacies of the language.
I'm I'm, I'm of no doubt that 

2051
01:55:45,560 --> 01:55:48,400
like robbery. 
And I had those conversations 

2052
01:55:48,400 --> 01:55:49,760
when they were putting the 
movies together and he's 

2053
01:55:49,760 --> 01:55:52,000
directing it and looking at the 
screenplay and going, well, 

2054
01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:54,920
actually, should we and to cut 
like should we, should we shoot 

2055
01:55:54,920 --> 01:55:59,320
some stuff and to cut it on the 
editing to like show what what 

2056
01:55:59,320 --> 01:56:02,240
they're talking about? 
Or should we just stay in the 

2057
01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:05,680
courtroom and stay there and and
they obviously made the right 

2058
01:56:05,680 --> 01:56:07,960
call there, I think to to keep 
it all in the courtroom, right? 

2059
01:56:07,960 --> 01:56:11,320
Should we talk about the ML Kua 
MD kua MH kua. 

2060
01:56:11,320 --> 01:56:15,360
So that's the most this is this 
is this is this is this is your 

2061
01:56:15,360 --> 01:56:18,400
opt for most likely course of 
action, your most dangerous 

2062
01:56:18,400 --> 01:56:21,720
course of action and almost 
hilarious course of action. 

2063
01:56:21,880 --> 01:56:26,600
Most likely course of action is 
what they expected it to be, 

2064
01:56:26,600 --> 01:56:29,600
right? 
So you assign the case to really

2065
01:56:29,600 --> 01:56:34,880
junior council who's got lots of
form for taking plea deals and 

2066
01:56:34,880 --> 01:56:38,080
not taking things to trial. 
What the most likely outcome of 

2067
01:56:38,080 --> 01:56:43,320
this is, is that they get the 12
years for a, for a guilty plea 

2068
01:56:43,920 --> 01:56:45,480
that was offered at the 
beginning. 

2069
01:56:45,800 --> 01:56:48,240
And those guys spend the better 
part of their lives in, in, in 

2070
01:56:48,240 --> 01:56:51,720
Leavenworth. 
And Kathy gets his set of steak 

2071
01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:53,320
knives and moves on. 
And the whole thing doesn't 

2072
01:56:53,320 --> 01:56:55,560
happen really. 
That's the most likely course of

2073
01:56:55,560 --> 01:56:58,240
action. 
And then terrifyingly, that 

2074
01:56:58,240 --> 01:57:01,920
means that Jessop was 
unencumbered on his rise to the 

2075
01:57:01,920 --> 01:57:05,040
top, goes on to be the director 
of operations for the security 

2076
01:57:05,040 --> 01:57:08,840
Advisor. 
And then Jesus, you know, his 

2077
01:57:08,840 --> 01:57:12,320
career treachery from there is, 
you know, either national 

2078
01:57:12,320 --> 01:57:15,680
security advisor himself proper 
or remains in the military, 

2079
01:57:16,360 --> 01:57:18,600
becomes like head of the Joint 
Chiefs. 

2080
01:57:18,600 --> 01:57:20,800
He's a Colonel at the moment, 
but you can see him rising up. 

2081
01:57:20,800 --> 01:57:24,360
Brigadier, whatever Major 
General, up to general, you 

2082
01:57:24,360 --> 01:57:28,040
know, you can see like 10 years 
from this, 15 years from this, 

2083
01:57:28,040 --> 01:57:30,560
he's he's occupying like 4 star.
Terrifying. 

2084
01:57:30,560 --> 01:57:35,480
Yeah. 
Or even more scary is he's in 

2085
01:57:35,480 --> 01:57:38,240
the Oval Office. 
Oh, jeez. 

2086
01:57:38,240 --> 01:57:39,800
Presidential run would be 
horrific. 

2087
01:57:40,200 --> 01:57:42,880
I feel like I'm in the dead zone
and I've just shook that bad 

2088
01:57:42,880 --> 01:57:46,720
guy's hand and I've and I've had
the visions that, you know, live

2089
01:57:46,720 --> 01:57:48,680
free or die. 
You have Jet in your eye and 

2090
01:57:48,680 --> 01:57:52,840
that motherfuckers. 
So, so this is the HW 

2091
01:57:52,840 --> 01:57:56,800
presidency, isn't it? 
This movie came out in. 

2092
01:57:57,040 --> 01:58:00,560
So there's a there's a version 
of this where I don't think he's

2093
01:58:00,560 --> 01:58:02,880
on the ticket in time for George
W, No. 

2094
01:58:02,960 --> 01:58:07,360
He wouldn't be. 
But he's certainly around to be 

2095
01:58:07,360 --> 01:58:10,120
a contender. 
I don't know, around Obama's 

2096
01:58:10,120 --> 01:58:14,120
second term. 
I mean, you know what, you're 

2097
01:58:14,120 --> 01:58:16,920
probably right. 
He would have, he would have ran

2098
01:58:16,920 --> 01:58:20,240
against Obama in kind of 
timeline terms, right? 

2099
01:58:20,240 --> 01:58:23,160
And. 
By the time you've you've done 

2100
01:58:23,160 --> 01:58:24,920
out your military career and 
you're an old guy. 

2101
01:58:24,920 --> 01:58:27,520
I mean, he's what was he meant 
to be about that about 50 odd? 

2102
01:58:28,920 --> 01:58:32,720
So I mean, let's work it out. 
So he did, he did Vietnam, so he

2103
01:58:32,720 --> 01:58:37,040
did few 2000. 
So 60s to 70s. 

2104
01:58:37,040 --> 01:58:39,960
So he's been in for he. 
Could have you could have been 

2105
01:58:39,960 --> 01:58:49,040
as young as 1819 during that. 
Yeah, so he's 60s, late 50s, 

2106
01:58:49,800 --> 01:58:51,800
Well. 
Maybe, in which case, actually 

2107
01:58:51,800 --> 01:58:56,480
maybe he's looking at maybe 
running against him in the 2008 

2108
01:58:56,480 --> 01:58:59,120
election, Then yeah, maybe it's 
like a it's like a reasonable 

2109
01:58:59,120 --> 01:59:01,120
time. 
Maybe. 

2110
01:59:01,160 --> 01:59:04,480
Maybe he's like a contender in 
the primaries and loses out to 

2111
01:59:04,480 --> 01:59:05,880
George W Bush. 
You know what the really 

2112
01:59:05,880 --> 01:59:09,080
hilarious thing would be? 
Seeing him doing a presidential 

2113
01:59:09,080 --> 01:59:11,280
run within that kind of time 
frame and like, debating 

2114
01:59:11,280 --> 01:59:15,840
against, for instance, Obama, 
especially because he'd have 

2115
01:59:16,320 --> 01:59:18,560
Kendra. 
Because it's hype man, possibly 

2116
01:59:18,560 --> 01:59:23,480
even as VP contender, and 
Kendrick would be trying so hard

2117
01:59:23,480 --> 01:59:25,560
not to say something super 
fucking racist. 

2118
01:59:25,960 --> 01:59:30,240
Kendrick by this point would 
have been like dishonourably 

2119
01:59:30,240 --> 01:59:34,400
discharged for like shooting 
some children in like, not even 

2120
01:59:34,400 --> 01:59:36,360
a war zone in like Baltimore or 
something. 

2121
01:59:38,440 --> 01:59:39,760
This is your hilarious course of
action. 

2122
01:59:39,760 --> 01:59:43,080
Check. 
Will it be like just like 

2123
01:59:43,200 --> 01:59:46,600
Kendrick loudly sweating and 
trying not to say something 

2124
01:59:46,640 --> 01:59:51,480
racist while while while his 
boss he was like The Walking 

2125
01:59:51,680 --> 01:59:56,320
embodiment of the Navy SEAL copy
pasta gets in a debate with 

2126
01:59:56,320 --> 01:59:59,040
Barack Obama? 
Can you imagine? 

2127
01:59:59,040 --> 02:00:01,720
Like, yeah, we just got the we 
just got the California poll 

2128
02:00:01,720 --> 02:00:06,640
figures in 89% of voters don't 
want their baby kissed by 

2129
02:00:06,640 --> 02:00:13,320
Nathan. 57% of those people 
thought that was a fairly or 

2130
02:00:13,320 --> 02:00:16,640
very important issue. 
Yeah, it's like he looks like 

2131
02:00:16,640 --> 02:00:21,040
you would eat it. 
That's like. 

2132
02:00:23,640 --> 02:00:26,800
I'm just trying to picture him 
like in in one room with Bernie 

2133
02:00:26,800 --> 02:00:30,160
Sanders. 
That was Could you imagine that?

2134
02:00:30,160 --> 02:00:33,920
He's pretty getting a question 
on gays in the military. 

2135
02:00:33,920 --> 02:00:35,520
Could you just imagine him like 
answering that? 

2136
02:00:36,440 --> 02:00:38,360
Like having to and having to 
like. 

2137
02:00:39,160 --> 02:00:42,360
I am trying to be nice about it 
if you ordered that code red. 

2138
02:00:43,520 --> 02:00:46,000
Oh my God. 
They attract enemy radar. 

2139
02:00:47,280 --> 02:00:50,400
They muck about. 
They always want to sit on the 

2140
02:00:50,400 --> 02:00:55,120
captain's table. 
The victim of the gay boat. 

2141
02:00:58,080 --> 02:00:59,440
Why are you being gay with your 
men? 

2142
02:01:02,680 --> 02:01:04,960
I'm here with the commanding 
officer of HMS Gooch. 

2143
02:01:10,600 --> 02:01:13,640
But it's just like literally 
just like literally giving oral 

2144
02:01:13,640 --> 02:01:18,760
sex suicide on. 90% of injuries 
in the Naval Service are 

2145
02:01:18,760 --> 02:01:24,360
sustained to the people. 
This is a deep cut that's 

2146
02:01:24,360 --> 02:01:28,560
probably not going to play with 
the handful of non non British 

2147
02:01:28,560 --> 02:01:30,480
listeners will have. 
And in fact, actually I think 

2148
02:01:30,480 --> 02:01:32,760
more of our listeners and non 
British than there are British. 

2149
02:01:32,960 --> 02:01:34,880
I'll put some I'll put some 
video footage up as it's 

2150
02:01:34,880 --> 02:01:35,480
happening. 
Yeah. 

2151
02:01:35,480 --> 02:01:36,960
So we can see. 
Yeah, we are, obviously. 

2152
02:01:38,000 --> 02:01:40,400
Referencing. 
Brass Eye, which is which is the

2153
02:01:40,400 --> 02:01:43,200
epitome of fake news. 
That's that's the greatest fake 

2154
02:01:43,200 --> 02:01:45,200
news ever created. 
I love. 

2155
02:01:45,560 --> 02:01:49,040
It very good, Yeah. 
Cool. 

2156
02:01:49,160 --> 02:01:51,320
Should we? 
Oh dude, actually got a question

2157
02:01:51,320 --> 02:01:54,040
for you. 
Have you got any notes from the 

2158
02:01:54,040 --> 02:01:54,960
Peanuts gallery? 
There's. 

2159
02:01:54,960 --> 02:02:01,120
Lots of very funny content out 
there about this film on our 

2160
02:02:01,120 --> 02:02:06,520
favourite website Letterbox. 
Once again, not using this spot 

2161
02:02:06,520 --> 02:02:09,040
to kind of call out people's 
opinions, even if they are shit.

2162
02:02:10,120 --> 02:02:12,840
We'll just kind of move on and 
deal with these bad opinions 

2163
02:02:12,840 --> 02:02:14,880
that we witness. 
I mean it might be a shit 

2164
02:02:14,880 --> 02:02:16,960
opinion, but it's not a shit 
person so. 

2165
02:02:17,280 --> 02:02:19,120
I just glanced. 
I just glanced at one Rory that 

2166
02:02:19,120 --> 02:02:21,280
says Jack Nicholson looks like 
he eats babies. 

2167
02:02:21,480 --> 02:02:23,400
There you go. 
That's why the California, the 

2168
02:02:23,400 --> 02:02:24,800
one touching the fucking kids, 
man. 

2169
02:02:25,640 --> 02:02:27,880
But like especially it's like 
there was one woman who was 

2170
02:02:27,880 --> 02:02:32,320
like, Oh my God, I named my 
daughter Crayola and he devoured

2171
02:02:32,520 --> 02:02:34,440
her. 
He's got our Marines, right? 

2172
02:02:34,440 --> 02:02:37,160
No. 
So off off off come the glasses,

2173
02:02:37,160 --> 02:02:39,800
because I'm an old bastard and 
let's have a look at these 

2174
02:02:39,840 --> 02:02:43,000
reviews. 
So an issue with this is you've 

2175
02:02:43,000 --> 02:02:47,760
got a kind of main through a lot
of ones that are just like 4 

2176
02:02:47,760 --> 02:02:50,600
stars all caps. 
You can't handle the truth for 

2177
02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:57,000
exclamation marks, but we'll get
once like he was digging in him.

2178
02:02:57,120 --> 02:02:59,960
If you know, you know genius 
Chungus. 

2179
02:03:01,200 --> 02:03:02,800
I have no idea the meaning of 
that. 

2180
02:03:03,440 --> 02:03:06,840
Well, I mean roughly the meaning
of it, but I don't get the, I 

2181
02:03:06,840 --> 02:03:12,040
don't get who he's digging in. 
So I guess I don't know. 

2182
02:03:12,440 --> 02:03:15,080
And that's four stars if. 
I had to guess it would be Tom 

2183
02:03:15,080 --> 02:03:16,920
Cruise and Kevin Bacon. 
I guess so, yeah. 

2184
02:03:17,920 --> 02:03:19,840
Tom Cruise, you know. 
How's your fucking soft bio 

2185
02:03:19,960 --> 02:03:22,400
Jack? 
Tom Cruise delivers the 

2186
02:03:22,400 --> 02:03:26,080
courtroom passion of a man who 
thinks an extraterrestrial ruler

2187
02:03:26,080 --> 02:03:29,640
named Xenu brought brilliance of
people to Earth and killed them 

2188
02:03:29,640 --> 02:03:32,680
with hydrogen bombs and now 
they're souls attached to people

2189
02:03:33,160 --> 02:03:36,280
and 'cause them to stress. 4 1/2
stars here. 

2190
02:03:36,760 --> 02:03:38,560
I love what it's like 4 1/2 
stars. 

2191
02:03:38,560 --> 02:03:40,760
Say what? 
What more could it have done 

2192
02:03:42,600 --> 02:03:45,640
rolling into the courtroom with 
the two schnooks like they're 

2193
02:03:45,640 --> 02:03:50,120
the letters in Miracle on 34th? 
I love that. 

2194
02:03:50,480 --> 02:03:53,080
I do it for one second. 
By the Jack Nicholson's carrot. 

2195
02:03:53,080 --> 02:03:55,680
I would actually decide to blurt
out the truth in court, but 

2196
02:03:55,680 --> 02:03:57,360
otherwise, great watch. 
Disagree. 

2197
02:03:57,360 --> 02:04:00,280
I think you absolutely would. 
I think he thought he was 

2198
02:04:00,280 --> 02:04:01,840
totally unassailable at that 
point. 

2199
02:04:01,840 --> 02:04:04,040
Like I said, the man said the 
walk and talk and physical 

2200
02:04:04,040 --> 02:04:06,800
embodiment of the Navy SEAL. 
Copy, pastor, you know? 

2201
02:04:06,800 --> 02:04:08,240
Yeah. 
He'll sort of contempt for. 

2202
02:04:08,240 --> 02:04:10,040
That yeah, total contempt for 
everyone. 

2203
02:04:10,720 --> 02:04:12,280
He's he's high on his own 
supply. 

2204
02:04:12,280 --> 02:04:13,560
He's absolutely in love for 
himself. 

2205
02:04:13,880 --> 02:04:15,360
He thinks he's the be all and 
all. 

2206
02:04:15,360 --> 02:04:16,720
He thinks he's fucking King 
Louie, man. 

2207
02:04:17,920 --> 02:04:19,520
He's not King Louie. 
He's not from Princely. 

2208
02:04:19,520 --> 02:04:21,560
He thinks he's Lily, Allen 
thinks. 

2209
02:04:21,560 --> 02:04:22,320
He's his own. 
Yeah, he. 

2210
02:04:23,720 --> 02:04:29,280
Thinks he's Rod Stewart. 
I'm stronger than the Colonel 

2211
02:04:29,280 --> 02:04:32,000
because I would never be rage 
bared into getting myself 

2212
02:04:32,000 --> 02:04:35,280
arrested for murder and several 
of our felonies. 

2213
02:04:35,880 --> 02:04:39,800
Absolutely. 
Basically a charisma competition

2214
02:04:39,800 --> 02:04:43,440
between Cruz and Moore, and 
they're both Duncan Three's on 

2215
02:04:43,440 --> 02:04:46,440
all counts. 
Also comes across as a Zuma 

2216
02:04:46,440 --> 02:04:49,920
versus Boomer clash in some 
respects, which is interesting. 

2217
02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:53,200
It is interesting. 
It is Zuma V Boomer Aaron Sorkin

2218
02:04:53,200 --> 02:04:56,760
character reaching through the 
TV to jerk off your neolib dad. 

2219
02:04:57,200 --> 02:05:00,280
I should go to gaol because I 
forgot the number one most 

2220
02:05:00,280 --> 02:05:03,760
important thing about the United
States military helping people. 

2221
02:05:08,120 --> 02:05:11,080
Would it be the perfect movie of
Tom Cruise and Demi Moore ended 

2222
02:05:11,080 --> 02:05:12,680
up together? 
Sad face no? 

2223
02:05:13,960 --> 02:05:16,560
That's great. 
Yeah, display with that one. 

2224
02:05:16,920 --> 02:05:18,080
Four stars. 
Demi Moore. 

2225
02:05:18,080 --> 02:05:20,520
Chronically underrated, not 
least because she's the only 

2226
02:05:20,520 --> 02:05:23,400
woman alive to have on screen 
sexual chemistry with Tom 

2227
02:05:23,400 --> 02:05:29,680
Cruise. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

2228
02:05:29,840 --> 02:05:32,000
Even his wife didn't. 
Yeah, well, there it go. 

2229
02:05:34,280 --> 02:05:37,560
Nothing Tom Cruise does in this 
movie would be OK in a 

2230
02:05:37,560 --> 02:05:41,920
courtroom. 
Yeah, there's, there's, there's 

2231
02:05:41,920 --> 02:05:43,800
lots of stuff here we'd probably
get like thrown out for. 

2232
02:05:43,800 --> 02:05:45,360
Being Absolutely. 
A bit of a Dick. 

2233
02:05:46,040 --> 02:05:47,880
And just one that kind of 
happens. 

2234
02:05:47,880 --> 02:05:52,200
Back to the first ever Notes and
Piano gallery on No Way Out. 

2235
02:05:52,440 --> 02:05:58,040
Tom Cruise in white uniform dot 
dot dot dot dot dot dot dot. 

2236
02:05:59,240 --> 02:06:06,200
So, yeah, it's a good mix of 
unhinged, horny and just quite 

2237
02:06:06,200 --> 02:06:09,800
insightful reviews from our 
excellent friends, the users of 

2238
02:06:09,800 --> 02:06:13,360
Lana Box who make my job easy. 
Thank you. 

2239
02:06:13,720 --> 02:06:16,120
Cool. 
That, I think, brings us to the 

2240
02:06:16,120 --> 02:06:19,120
end of another edition of 
Sharing Present Dudes. 

2241
02:06:19,120 --> 02:06:24,640
True on ICIA, sorry. 
Oh, right, yeah, I mean, that 

2242
02:06:24,640 --> 02:06:28,960
depends, I suppose. 
Really. 

2243
02:06:29,640 --> 02:06:32,120
The only way, the only thing I 
can think of right, is that is 

2244
02:06:32,120 --> 02:06:35,600
that this whole movie is based 
on an incident that took place 

2245
02:06:35,880 --> 02:06:38,480
at a problem base down in 
Guantanamo Bay. 

2246
02:06:38,880 --> 02:06:43,560
And you know, the only reason 
that that base is there and we 

2247
02:06:43,560 --> 02:06:47,480
got involved, they got involved 
with Cuba in the 1st place is 

2248
02:06:47,800 --> 02:06:51,040
the Cold War and who had and who
had a big hand and all that big.

2249
02:06:51,080 --> 02:06:53,000
CIA. 
Central, big Central 

2250
02:06:53,000 --> 02:06:55,800
Intelligence Agency. 
So you know, it all goes back to

2251
02:06:55,800 --> 02:07:00,120
62, doesn't it? 
So it's a bit of a reach. 

2252
02:07:00,200 --> 02:07:03,640
But if it either way, I think it
goes slightly in the ante. 

2253
02:07:04,960 --> 02:07:05,880
They're not really involved, do 
they? 

2254
02:07:07,400 --> 02:07:10,000
The closest thing it gets to 
intelligence is saying that 

2255
02:07:12,560 --> 02:07:15,600
Jessup's exo, the guy who 
disappeared and then domed 

2256
02:07:15,600 --> 02:07:17,880
himself, worked at 
counterintelligence. 

2257
02:07:18,720 --> 02:07:19,640
The Marines. 
So. 

2258
02:07:20,320 --> 02:07:22,640
And he was really good. 
So he was like, he's gone. 

2259
02:07:23,040 --> 02:07:24,680
So I guess it says they're 
really good at training them. 

2260
02:07:24,680 --> 02:07:28,480
Actually, so like you would have
had some, some CIA kind of 

2261
02:07:29,080 --> 02:07:31,560
input. 
Who knows, maybe he was down in 

2262
02:07:31,560 --> 02:07:35,080
the school of America as at one 
point maybe he was with the 

2263
02:07:35,080 --> 02:07:38,960
dance squads. 
You could. 

2264
02:07:39,120 --> 02:07:44,480
Make stretch the point a bit and
make it to the movies distinctly

2265
02:07:44,480 --> 02:07:49,080
against abuse of power. 
That's true. 

2266
02:07:49,560 --> 02:07:52,680
And then from there you 
extrapolate naturally that it's 

2267
02:07:52,680 --> 02:08:00,080
probably against the say. 
That's a coin flip. 

2268
02:08:00,080 --> 02:08:04,640
This one, I mean between either 
anti CIA or just entirely 

2269
02:08:04,640 --> 02:08:10,800
ambivalent on it because I mean.
I guess it's against reshaping 

2270
02:08:10,800 --> 02:08:13,480
the narrative to suit your own 
ends and prove the truth. 

2271
02:08:13,480 --> 02:08:17,320
Yeah. 
So that doesn't speak highly for

2272
02:08:17,320 --> 02:08:19,520
this. 
I think this is one in the anti 

2273
02:08:19,520 --> 02:08:23,280
CIA box. 
Just yeah, just because of like 

2274
02:08:23,280 --> 02:08:29,200
Aaron Sorkin's general outlook. 
Yeah, so what's the tally at 

2275
02:08:29,200 --> 02:08:31,880
now? 
12 happens to? 

2276
02:08:31,920 --> 02:08:34,000
Let's work out which one's the 
poor Aunt I. 

2277
02:08:35,080 --> 02:08:37,920
So no way out? 
Yeah, Auntie. 

2278
02:08:37,960 --> 02:08:43,280
Yeah, Meteor. 
I can't remember what you said 

2279
02:08:43,280 --> 02:08:44,280
for that. 
Ambivalent. 

2280
02:08:44,280 --> 02:08:48,320
Yeah. 
Hunt for All October Pro. 

2281
02:08:48,320 --> 02:08:51,200
Vehemently pro yeah. 
Vehemently pro yeah. 

2282
02:08:52,680 --> 02:08:55,240
OP Centre didn't. 
They weren't involved. 

2283
02:08:55,240 --> 02:08:56,640
Yeah, sure. 
He wasn't involved in that film 

2284
02:08:56,640 --> 02:09:00,440
at all, Rosalie. 
Really striking distance not 

2285
02:09:00,440 --> 02:09:05,160
involved. 
God War of the Worlds not not 

2286
02:09:05,160 --> 02:09:11,360
involved the enemy of the state 
pro I think just because they 

2287
02:09:11,400 --> 02:09:14,600
because they weren't the NSA. 
It was it was it was pro CIA of 

2288
02:09:14,600 --> 02:09:18,760
identifying anti NSA. 
And June Hackman's character 

2289
02:09:18,760 --> 02:09:20,000
being yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Yeah. 

2290
02:09:21,280 --> 02:09:22,520
Because it was. 
It was broad, wasn't he? 

2291
02:09:22,520 --> 02:09:25,240
Yeah. 
And God, what have you? 

2292
02:09:25,240 --> 02:09:29,560
What was After that we did 
Crimson Tide, which was 

2293
02:09:29,640 --> 02:09:33,360
ambivalent. 
The last one we did was 

2294
02:09:33,360 --> 02:09:38,520
unstoppable, ambivalent and oh 
and Fred is the Condor which I 

2295
02:09:38,520 --> 02:09:40,800
think is anti. 
Yeah, yeah. 

2296
02:09:41,840 --> 02:09:44,480
So we're equals equals in there.
And then we add on this as an 

2297
02:09:44,480 --> 02:09:45,840
anti. 
So it's 3 to 2 I think. 

2298
02:09:48,720 --> 02:09:52,000
Cool. 
So we'll keep, we'll keep track 

2299
02:09:52,000 --> 02:09:53,880
of that. 
What's the next movie we're 

2300
02:09:53,880 --> 02:09:55,040
going to do? 
I just had a pick. 

2301
02:09:55,040 --> 02:09:59,000
So it's one of you guys. 
All right, we're going to go 

2302
02:09:59,000 --> 02:10:01,160
apeshit. 
We're going to go nuts. 

2303
02:10:02,400 --> 02:10:05,240
We are going to go for a film 
that I initially wanted to do 

2304
02:10:05,240 --> 02:10:07,920
was my pick right when we 
started this podcast off. 

2305
02:10:08,520 --> 02:10:12,760
We're going to go for the 
incredibly bonkers mid to late 

2306
02:10:12,760 --> 02:10:16,000
2000s thriller that is Smoking 
Aces. 

2307
02:10:17,680 --> 02:10:19,480
Wow. 
OK, cool. 

2308
02:10:19,480 --> 02:10:22,240
Chris Payne, the cast of 
thousands. 

2309
02:10:23,360 --> 02:10:25,800
It's going to be nuts. 
I'm really excited. 

2310
02:10:25,920 --> 02:10:28,840
This film's crazy. 
I wanted to propose this for 

2311
02:10:28,840 --> 02:10:31,640
like the first film we did, but 
it's so long, there's so much 

2312
02:10:31,640 --> 02:10:36,720
stuff in it. 
It's a mental and I hope, I hope

2313
02:10:36,720 --> 02:10:39,560
the board approves of my 
request. 

2314
02:10:42,320 --> 02:10:44,040
Yeah, absolutely. 
It's true. 

2315
02:10:44,240 --> 02:10:47,880
True. 
Carnahan's Smoking Aces also did

2316
02:10:47,880 --> 02:10:49,040
knock. 
Do you remember Knock? 

2317
02:10:49,040 --> 02:10:51,640
Yeah, God damn. 
Oh, bleak movie.
